page 1 | page 2 | page 3 | page 4 | main page 15 Easy-to-Find Early Spring Wildflowers Each page presents four photos with short flower descriptions. Pages take about 30 seconds to load over a 56K connection. The flower species shown bloom before the trees green up. The photos were all taken one afternoon in the first week of April in Baxter County, Arkansas along a three-mile stretch of gravel road. Each flower was found within 15 feet of the roadside. In the description of each flower you'll see references to what environment the species is typically found. Roads pass through any of the environments given. Look for these different growing conditions along the roadside if you are seeking a specific species. There are more species which bloom in early spring, but these 15 are the most common. If you would like more details on finding roadside wildflowers read the short article accompanying this photo tour. It's called The Simple Art of Ozark Flower Hunting. It gives helpful tips on what to wear, photography, and preparing for your wildflower drive.
