#blue bead lily

[greycatbird]

Today a fly zoomed straight into my mouth and got stuck in my throat but that's just how the springtime cookie crumbles innit. Please enjoy a pretty little crab spider skulking in some Azure Bluets, a Sensitive Fern frond cupping the sun, a patch of Red Columbine, a Veery, a Morel (!), Blue-bead Lilies, a Jack-in-the-Pulpit, and a pair of beetles in a Hawthorn flower cluster.

Blue Bead Lily

[themosshunter]

Clintonia borealis (Blue-bead Lily) of Liliaceae, the lily family.

Found early June on Camel's Hump mountain near Richmond, VT.

Montane forest, ~2500ft elevation, along trail

Once this lily flower has past the fruit remaining is a single dark blue berry, hence its common name.
