Wildflower Hike with Sue Coakley
Sharon Parker, Sue Coakley, Joanne Rauert, Sue Johnson, and Jane Altobelli
May 13th turned out to be a beautiful sunny day to go on Sue Coakley's wildflower hunt in Heath Forest. Among the flowering plants they found were wild oats, dwarf ginseng, red and painted trillium, hobble bush, American fly honeysuckle, Canada mayflowers, and white wood violets. Sue identified a number of soon-to-bloom flowers from their foliage including partridge and bunch berry, American mountain ash, twisted stalk, star flower, Indian cucumber, wild lettuce, crinkelroot and the cool sounding blue beaded lily. Heath Forest is located right in Grantham. The trailhead is at the Bogie Place dead end. It's a wonderful place for exercise and fresh air with the cherry-on- top being the pretty wildflowers you'll find.
