“The first significant snowfall in…well, a while here…cast its spell on the gray, gloomy January landscape. It turned wearisome weather into wonder.” (from “A Tallgrass Prairie Snowfall” by Cindy Crosby)
My walks in Forest Park have been inspired by intermittent showers of snow over the last few days. The dustings of white brought out shapes and details that ordinarily would have been camouflaged by the uniform greens and umbers of the wet season. Below are photos of nine native plants from this snowy time.
