The roadsides are becoming colorful out here! In the last few days we have fairy slippers (false ladyslippers),

Tall bluebells

In a short time, this old relic along the roadside will be overflowing with Nasturtiums. A lady up the road has planted the box of this truck full of flowers for several years - thank you R! It's people like you that make the world a more beautiful place! This truck has also been photographed in full bloom by British Columbia Magazine when this area was featured in the magazine a couple of years back.

Showy Jacob's Ladder.

Also coming into their glory right now are Arnica, many strawberry blossoms, saskatoon blossoms, meadow rue and in short time we will see the yarrow, fireweed, red columbine, and false solomon's seal, among others. No, I didn't forget the dandelions, there are lots of those too - they just don't deserve mentioning.
