Backyard Wildflowers


"We are all meant to be naturalists, each in his own degree, and it is inexcusable to live in a world so full of the marvels of plant and animal life and to care for none of these things." ~ Charlotte Mason

All of these wildflowers were found in or near my own backyard...

Ground Ivy (Glechoma heberacea)
BOTTOM (L to R): Purple Deadnettle (Lamium purpureum), Yellow Wood Sorrel (Oxalis stricta), Thyme-leaved Speedwell (Veronica Serpyllifolia)
