What’s In Bloom?
Eager to know what blooms you’ll see when you visit?
Then this is the page for you!
Hover over each photo to help you identify each flower.
Bloodroot (Sanguinaria canadensis)
Both the common and Latin name of this plant were inspired by the red-orange juice found throughout the plants stems and horizontal, underground roots (also known as rhizomes).
Little Sweet Betsy Trillium (Trillium cuneatum)
Also known as the whip-poor-will flower these beautiful dark purple blooms can often be found in shady areas.
Purple Phacelia (Phacelia tanacetifolia)
Also called Fernleaf Phacelia, this beautiful spring bloom is often overlooked.
Redbud Tree
Redbuds are adding bright pops of color to the Park's fading winter landscape.
