Welcoming Wildflower Season

Sagebrush Buttercup in March Aase's Onion in late March Happy April! The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, the evenings feel longer with so much light, and spring is here. I love every season, but there is something so special about seeing all aspects of nature wake up and grow. My favorite part of spring is spending more time outside and being a witness to wildflowers blooming throughout the season. Every wildflower seems like a special discovery to me, because some of they bloom for such a short period of time, or are a rare species that only grow in specific areas. I love seeking out wildflowers on spring bike rides and hikes. If you want to welcome spring in your area, I encourage you to take a walk and look for wildflowers. Take photos of the flowers and identify them with field guides or websites at home!  Check out the  Treasures of the Boise Front  website for photo galleries of different wildflowers, wildflower walk destinations, and species lists of wildflowers you
