Flowers and Streams

One of the treasures at Elderberry and Potluck Farm (adjacent community) are the 100+ acres of beautiful woods, streams and trails between our two communities.  Here is a sampling of Spring in our woods.

The wild azalea


Violets



We have miles of hiking trails

Little Creek  - feeds the Flat River

We have several places where streams flow over rocks,
creating that beautiful sound of rushing water

Bluets

Coral Honeysuckle

Lily-leaved twayblade... an orchid with a very weird name!


Wild ginger - we rarely see the flower


The lousewort - or a prettier name that Marj just told me - wood-betony.  Marj knows all the scientific names of the flowers also - she is the person to go hiking with in the spring!
