...May flowers - Perfoliate Bellwort

​We've all heard the rhyme "April showers bring May flowers", but just what blooms in May? 
Follow along as we post about a new flower every day in May, some familiar, some may be new, all beautiful in their unique sort of way!
​

Also known as perfoliate bellwort, mealy bellwort, and merrybells.
Very similar to other bellwort except the flower stem arises from the center of the leaves appearing to pierce them. 
​This one was found in Mohican State Forest.
