| Bright red berries of the Jack-in-the-Pulpit |
The Canadian iconic wild flower, the Jack-in-the-Pulpit, has a brilliant head of seed pods that most people haven't seen. The seed pod grows gradually over the summer until the head is a large bright green. Then as August winds down the pod turns a brilliant red.
I am lucky enough to have several wildflowers in my garden, because some of my property is the original forest floor. I have 100 year old trees and ferns that have been growing for centuries. I treasure these heritage plants and am glad that I can look at then every day.
