7/04 Barrier Lake 하이킹하며 만난 Wild Flowers !!

 

 

 

 감격적인 만남이었다!

야생난을 이곳에서 만났다!!

무더기로 이끼 사이에서 꽃대가 올라와

수줍은듯 진분홍빛 꽃을 내밀고 있다.

 

Calypso bulbosa: Venus Slipper This enchanting, small flower is the first to bloom in the Rockies at the end of May.  It has a single leaf that appears in late summer and somehow survives the harsh winter to bloom in the Spring. The flowers are tiny, born on stems up to 20 cm in height, and like to grow in clusters sometimes many meters across.
