When you stop to think about it, it really is amazing how many different wildflowers there are in Vermont. There are at least a couple of hundred varieties.
white campion
yellow flag
herb robert
black-eyed susan
What is equally amazing is that many of them grow in exactly the same places but at different times of the year. Call me crazy, but the best analogy I've been able to think of is an arrival gate at a busy airport. When people are waiting to board a plane, the area is crowded. Then the plane leaves and it's empty. After a time another plane comes in and it's crowded again except it's different people. That's kind of how it works during wildflower season.
