how many flowers on one stalk
enough to make my heart sing
blossoms open
from bottom to top
in multitudes
they light up the woods
~
beargrass, not actually a grass but is in the lily family,
tends to bloom once every 5-7 years
so when it blooms
we love it!

ReplyDeletei love the idea of balls of lace Charlottee!
mister B, they do have a lovely scent, though yesterday i could not smell it, not sure why.
Oh how beautiful... they just made my heart sing too.xxx
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful plant Tammie. It's something I've never come across before. I've just been looking through images of them in the Glacier National Park, is this where you've photographed them ?
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely hike that would be.
oh tammie, i am a beargrass lover... thank you...

The wonders of nature! It is worth being alive to see it lighting up the fires. Our alpine eucalyptus, Eucalyptus pauciflora, only flowers every seven years. Plants are amazing.
ReplyDeleteWhat a treat to see this flower in bloom. Thanks for extending its visibility across the continent!
ReplyDeleteOh ... it's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI did not know this plant, really fantastic!
Good week!
A kiss.
Your photos are very nice, Tammie! Beargrass is starting to bloom around here too, but they seem to be very sparse this year.
ReplyDeleteWow, what an interesting and beautiful plant. I've never seen these before.
ReplyDeleteWow! What a glorious blossom ~ and well worth waiting for!
ReplyDeleteI have never seen beargrass before and it is interesting that they are from the lily family too!
ReplyDeleteThe shapes of these flowers make me smile as they look like fluffy pom poms. They are pure beauty with such delicate flowers. Truly beautiful photos.
Summer blessings dear Tammie.
Such a lovely flower and captured so beautifully from each angle.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing plant! Those tiny flowers are so dainty and frothy looking. How lovely to have caught them in bloom since it only happens every 5-7 years! Beautiful captures!
ReplyDeletewell these are just...compelling images.
ReplyDeleteA lovely set of flowershots, and I used some extra time watching the third shot, the atmosphere of the deep forest is coming through and the nice tones of green makes this one my favourite!
