I remember seeing this beautiful wildflower last year, the purple Spiderwort, blooming along the parking lot at the Beech Forest Trailhead, and there it was again this year.

“The three-petaled spiderwort flowers are usually blue to purple, but may also be pink, white, or red. They only remain open for a day (blooming in morning hours and closing at night), but the multiple flowers will continually bloom for up to four to six weeks in summer.”

Have you seen the pretty purple Spiderworts in the parking lot?
