Bearberry shrubs are starting to bloom here on Cape Cod. Bearberry is a trailing, evergreen shrub. Its flowers are tiny white or pink bells, clustered at the branch ends. Its leaves are glossy, leathery and paddle-shaped. In the fall these little flowers will turn into little red berries.
Have you ever seen Bearberry? When we lived in Colorado, Bearberry were known as Kinnikinick. Pretty little plants…love the bell-shaped flower. What do you think?
I was so surprised to see a Wild Geranium here on Cape Cod as I was taking a walk along the trail. I did not know that they grew here. I had seen them many times out west as they grow abundantly along the trails.
Pretty flower, don’t you think? I love the vibrant color!
I saw this pretty white wildflower while taking a walk in Orleans on Cape Cod. It was growing along the side of the road and was so pretty and delicate.
Its flowers grow from its base. Does anyone know what kind of wildflower this is? I can’t seem to find it…
