Identifying Those Beech Mountain Blooms

Alice Russell was kind enough to send me some pictures a couple of months ago that vividly show the blooms that we are all now beginning to see here on the mountain. If you haven't been out for a walk lately, you need to get out (between the raindrops) and see the beautiful plants that are beginning to show off, even just along our roads. The following are Alice's pictures and the names of the plants. Thank you so much, Alice!
