Henderson's Brodiaea, Triteleis hendersonii

This unusually colored flower was on display at the 2015 Glide, Oregon Wildflower show.


Whipplevine, Whipplea modesta

This flower was found growing near the Umpqua River, East of Glide, Oregon.  The plant has trailing stems and is a perennial native.


Goldthread, Coptis laciniata

While participating in a Wildflower Walk sponsored by the Glide, Oregon Wildflower Show we happened upon many examples of this low-growing native.  Unfortunately it was too late in the season to see the flowers- all that was visible were these whorls of green seedpods.


Morel mushroom, Morchella deliciosa

Growing along the Umpqua river, East of Glide, Oregon, this tasty mushroom was growing right on a heavily used trail; No, I didn't pick it!
