Our Northwest native Pink Fawn Lily is in full bloom right now. An easy growing part-shade lover, it’s named for the dappled foliage similar to the coat of a new fawn.

Forget-me-nots have a yellow center until the flower gets pollinated. The center turns white letting bees know that flower has already been visited. 💙🐝

Oemleria cerasiformis, commonly known as osoberry or Indian plum, is another one of those charming #Northwest native shrubs. If you have room in your #garden, the native #pollinators will love the flowers and our foragers will appreciate the fruits. 💜

The Montmorency cherry is just about to bloom this year. Do you grow them? It’s my favorite tart cherry. Self pollinating. That’s Lucy exploring below.
