vita-sativum's Identifications

Stayed late to see these flowers open up with Steve and Jade! Steve had found several earlier on that were either in fruit or budding so we went back to check on them and then poked around to try to find more while waiting for them to open. Jade managed to spot several populations not far from the original ones Steve pointed out and the three of us thoroughly enjoyed watching them pop open just before 4PM!

Seen during a field trip to J.W. Corbett WMA led & organized by Steve Woodmansee of the Dade Chapter of the Florida Native Plant Society. It was a great trip with several dozen species seen in flower!
