Ponderosa Pine in the high desert of Central Oregon. The lovely copper colored bark & long green needle tufts are delightful. If you hug this tree, you may note a vanilla scent wafting through the air from the bark. Ah, it's sublime! #oregon #treehugger #naturephotography #nature #trees

Beargrass (a.k.a. Xerophyllum tenax), growing in the Oregon Cascade Mountains. Botanically speaking, it's technically not a grass, yet it has grass-like leaves (see second photo). #beargrass #xerophyllum #wildflowers #nativeplants #oregon #botany

Candy stick, a.k.a. sugar stick (Allotropa virgata), 3,500 ft. in elevation in the old growth forest, is a flowering plant native to Oregon that lacks chlorophyll and thus depends on fungi for nourishment. #allotropa #nativeplants #oregon #naturephotography
