Mariton - Wildflower Update

Rue Anemone and Spring Beauties are blooming.  Bloodroot is out all over.  Remember it doesn't stay in bloom for very long.  There is a beautiful patch of Hepatica in bloom along the River Lookout Trail, along with a nice display of Bloodroot.  Also on the Lookout Trail, Shadbush (Amerlanchier sp.) flower blossoms are just beginning to open.  It is worth the trip.

If you want to avoid the climb back from the Lookout Trail, you can also find Hepatica along the Chimney Rock Trail, near its junction with the Fox Trail.  This location is also the best place to view Bloodroot.
