The Contest Of Petals - White Flowers

in #petals6 years ago (edited)

My entry to white #flowers @Petals, an idea of @adrianobalan and @sardrt.

White bunchberry flower I found growing wild in the forest is a member of the dogwood family.

Bunchberry Flower

Settings: f/3.5 50mm ISO 100



The Bunchberry flower turns into a cluster of bright red berries/drupes in late summer. The drupes are edible food enjoyed by deer and moose.

The lovely Bunchberry was used for a Canadian symbol in Meghan Markle’s wedding veil.

The strawberry plant happened to pop by in my flower garden. Wild strawberries grow throughout the lawn.

The white blossoms turn into delicious red berries later on and are enjoyed by humans and animals.

Mountain Ash Blossoms

The white blossoms of the Mountain Ash tree. These turn into lovely edible red berries in the fall.

The berries stay on the tree all winter and the birds and other animals use them for food.

We get the same blooms about the same time! :-)
Love those little white flowers Bunchberry! I always
called them puppywoods, cause they look like a tiny
dogwoods lol

Nice to know the real name! Just took some photos
of some here today, bumper crops this year!

Wild strawberries and mountain ash here also, I
mostly notice those ash in the fall with all the
berries and coloured leaves 🌼🌿

Beautiful photos @redheadpei! It's cool to see
what plants are in your area! ❤

Thanks so much @shasta for your lovely comments. We must be in the same planting zone with so many similar plants. 🤗

All your flowers are so pretty!

Thanks @pusteblume and for stopping by. 😊

I like the all the flowers @redheadpei, I have not seen any of the flowers before. Thank you for sharing!

Thanks @marblely. I’m glad you like them. 😊

These are really nice shots

Thanks so much @emjoe. 😊

You are welcome dear.

Keep Steeming

Wonderful photography. All shots are very high quality. I really like the first one because of the dark background. Love the info about each photo also! Awesome post :)

Thanks @steven-Patrick. I’m happy you liked the photos and info. 😊

Nicely taken shot !

These are beautiful shots of white flowers, Joanne! The first one is my favorite since I haven't seen them yet...

Thanks Icy and thanks for the resteem. The bunchberry is a fabulous little wild flower. Lots of them right now in the forest by the house. ❤️

Those are some gorgeous flowers. Thank you for including the description for us about each flower. It makes the post much more interesting to read. I will show my mom this post and maybe she can find the seeds to plant some of these flowers in her garden if she likes them. :)

Have an amazing day. :)

Thanks so much @awakentolife for your visit and kind comments. Your Mom may be able to find these. The bunchberry plant grows wild in the forest /woodlands and is probably like the lovely Lady Slippers and will only grow where it wants. 😊
