#Canada violet

[vandaliatraveler]

The dreary weather persisted today, so I blew off a planned trip to Ohiopyle and hiked several trails along Clay Run in Coopers Rock State Forest instead. The pink lady’s slipper orchids (Cypripedium acaule) are now coming into bloom, reminding me that May is just around the corner.  From top: flowering dogwood (Cornus florida); the plummeting green-yellow flowers of striped maple (Acer pensylvanicum); broadleaf toothwort (Cardamine diphylla); Canada violet (Viola canadensis); two-leaf miterwort (Mitella diphylla); Jack-in-the-pulpit (Arisaema triphyllum); and pink lady’s slipper orchid.

Canada Violet

While all the other flowers in the garden have retired for the year, the humble violet continues to perform its modest task well into frosty November.

"A small swallow of the west, nesting from Alaska to central Mexico. Similar to the Tree Swallow in appearance and also in behavior, nesting in tree cavities and in birdhouses; it also will nest in rock crevices of cliffs in rugged terrain. Flocks are often seen flying high over mountain pine forests or over steep canyons."

La pomme pourpre, originaire de Saskatchewan, Canada, prospère dans son climat froid, aromatisant un profil de saveur rappelant la cannelle et la banane. Parfois appelé raisins canadiens. Leur extérieur violet vibrant cache un intérieur richement coloré, ce qui en fait des ingrédients appréciés, en particulier dans la création de compote. Cette tradition culinaire signifie non seulement l'héritage culturel mais favorise également l'unité et la fierté de la communauté. Avec leurs bienfaits pour la santé et leur impact économique potentiel, les pommes violettes servent de symbole de résilience et de connexion à la terre, incarnant la riche tapisserie du patrimoine culturel et culinaire de la Saskatchewan.

Évidemment que la couleur de la pomme ainsi que le texte à été générée par l'IA

I've been too foggybrained to focus on drawing and too exhausted to stay awake through the day and its absolutely driving me up the wall.

I've also been asleep by like 8-10pm most days, which is fuckin' weird.

Just let me draw again, body. Please.
