My Daily Blog for 2020 June / Hoehee: Daily Blog
Each month it is fun to find and eat wild edible plants. In June, the Shamrock (Oxalis sp.) is an available wild edible plant. The Shamrock also has yellow flowers in June. My June daily blog shows flowers blooming on native and exotic plants, in Michigan. In June, the native woody plants that bloom include the Tuliptree, Arrowwood Viburnum, and the Mapleleaf Viburnum. A few exotic plants, from Asia, that bloom are the Bridalwreath Spirea, the Beautybush, and Bleeding Hearts. (See photos of June spring flowers blooming, in my daily blog.)
June also has some first early fruits and seeds that mature and drop - including the Silver Maple winged-seeds (the samaras, or helicopters), as well as the Cottonwood seeds float in the air and cover the ground with their cottony fluff. In June, the bugs are in full swing, including butterflies, fireflies, and damselflies. Enjoy! (See photos in my daily blog.)
Also, my June 2020 daily blog has a calendar list (with some photos) of the daily weather and phenology. Phenology includes the changes of plants and animals over the month, seasons, and year. For example, when a tree blooms, grows leaves, grows fruit, fruits ripen, leaves change color, and leaves fall off. In June, there's the phenology of which days selected flowers were blooming, including native wildflowers: Sand Coreopsis, Spiderwort, Blue Flag Iris, and more. (See calendar of June spring flowers blooming on trees, shrubs, and flowers, in my daily blog.)
Happy End of Spring!
