Wilting Ladies


It's been a couple of weeks since I discovered them, but I need to visit every day to follow their progress. They're wilting now. I led a group of around a dozen folks, mostly from the Bay Area, to see this hideaway, and they seemed pleased to see the ladies. The mountain Lady Slipper, to be precise. The Dog Violets and False Solomon's Seal in the vicinity have already gone to seed, but the Crimson Columbine are still looking good. Nice, damp, shady spot 1/2 mile from Oakland Camp. Already looking forward to next spring in this area even though we have lots of summer remaining.
