An evening walk


Hepatica (Hepatica nobilis)



Hepatica is not able to vegetatively expand its area and
digging a bunch can decimate the species in the wild.



 In the wild the species only spreads through its seeds,
which are transported by ants.




Lily of the valley


Hazel (female flower)


Hazel (male flower)

      The leaves are wood sorrel and not the leaves of the hepatica. :-)

    Traumhaft schöne Fotos. Eine wunderbare blaue Blüte. Bei uns wird es Leberblümchen genannt und wieder etwas gelernt, dass die Samen von Ameisen verstreut werden hatte ich nicht gewusst. Einen guten Start in die Woche!

    What beautiful blue in such delicate flowers, Gunilla, they would be worth a walk in the woods. Somehow I always miss seeing the female hazel flowers, I'll have to see if any are still around.

    Stunningly beautiful and such fascinating information about how these lovely flowers grow, depend on each other and the ants for survival. Thanks so much for sharing the love up-close with I Heart Macro ♥
