Last spring I was amazed at the big patches of Trout Lily\u00a0leaves\u00a0(aka Dogtooth Violet or Adder’s Tongue) that I found at Emmon’s Preserve in Kennebunkport and along the trails at the Wonderbrook Preserve in Kennebunk in early April. Though I went back\u00a0several\u00a0times I missed the bloom at both locations. Last year was a\u00a0particularly<\/span>\u00a0early spring, a full 4 weeks ahead of this year’s late spring, and I now have to wonder if I had already missed the bloom the very first time I saw adder’s tongue on April 9th. Yesterday, my Sunday Photo-prowl took me back to Emmon’s Preserve (to try some deep HDR’s of the falls) and I was delighted to find large patches of Trout Lily in bloom! It is such a beautiful plant.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
