BITTERROOTS IN BLOOM

I finally walked out to the west of our place where the first bitterroots usually show up and sure enough, there were at least 8 blooming over there.  They are late this year - normal years it is the 1st of June when they are blooming.  Looks like lots of them will be in full flower mode in a week or so. 

The famous bitterroot which our valley was named for and is the state flower.

The Arrowleaf Balsamroots are starting to fade as their peddles are falling off.

The bleeding hearts are still going strong by the barn.

Quite a few flowers in the rocks to the west of our place still in bloom.  With all the moisture this spring, we have quite a few flowers.
