may and june wildflowers of the lower chartiers watershed

This is by no means an exhaustive listing of wildflowers blooming in May and June in this area. I can't always find local wildflowers along the trail and I can't always get to them when they are available to have their photos taken, but I do have a number of them growing in my yard, which is a backyard wildlife habitat. Until I get more wildflowers documented in an actual walk along the trail it's always helpful to document them this way. These images are provided for familiarity rather than strict scientific identification; I am not a scientist, and my goal is to give people a general appreciation of the beauty of their local wildflowers. The names are accurate, but I'll keep to the most common name to make it easier for you to find these in guidebooks and pursue more information. Just enjoy looking at them.
