Trillium

I checked with my friend Richard, and Aaron is quite right -- it was not
undulatum that was not found in the park. My mistake. What Richard
probably told me was that there were none close enough to the road for the
two of us -- two old men, one with really bad knees -- to get to, given
where we were at the time. It was getting late in the day, and my long
suffering wife was back at our motel, waiting for me to come back and take
her to supper!

We did not see T. undulatum, which has not been
found inside the park so
far, nor T. catesbaei, nor T. sulcatum. Still, I
don't think there are many
places where you can spend one weekend, stay within
a radius of about 20
miles, and see 6 species of Trillium in bloom.
