Secret Stories of Spring Beauties
Clatonia virginica
Ahhh—Spring Beauties! The quintessential spring wildflower. There’s a dense, trailside patch of them not far from where I live.
I eagerly await their arrival each spring and when they do finally pop up and bloom those tiny pink pinstripes thrill me to no end.
Apparently, I’m not alone.
Have the spring beauties popped up in your area? Or maybe you have a different spring flower that you wait for every spring? Let me know in the comments below. I would love to hear from you!
I saw these on a walk in a local nature preserve recently and took a picture so I could look up what they were! Thank you so much for all the information! They are even more beautiful when I think about those happy baby bees 🐝
