Virginia Bluebells

This is an amazing plant. It spreads across floodplains and woodland floors during the spring. Up close, the flower buds are pink and turn a beautiful blue when they open.

On floodplain.

Wow Doug! I didn't know they were purple close up. What a super cool flower!

Where are these located at?

These are beautiful flowers, especially when they occur in masses like this, Jim. I searched for an image like the close-up for a long time before finding the perfect subject. These are at a woodland in Illinois called Messenger Woods.

Really nice looking blooms Doug. Very distinct shape along with the color and shade.
