In late May or early June, Ohio spiderwort begins a performance that will last a month or longer, starring a cluster of buds that releases only a couple of flowers each day. Each morning, a new bud opens into a delicate blue or purple flower.

The flower shows continue in the woodland and spectacular shows may now be taking place in our prairies and savannas.

The flower shows continue in the woodland and have moved into the oak savannas and prairies.

May has arrived, and the woodlands are covered with emerald shapes and an array of colorful wildflowers that may include bluebells, trillium, woodland phlox, birdfoot violet, and more.

By this time in April, our woodland flowers are well into their blooms. Look for the magnificent shows of bluebells and trillium.
