hey, bongasaurus. been a while. i found out why my orchid kept dropping buds. turns out i was underwatering. fixed that prob and had a nice double branched with many flowers. bought a new one when i figured out the prob and it's starting it's second flowering of the season. i'll get pics when the flowers open. it looks like your pic of the white one with purple lower central petals. the flowers are bigger than my yellow one. btw, nice pics, all. and great thread. :D

Climate in my region (South Serbia) is somewhat similar to Southern Oklahoma, or, in Europe, maybe like Burgundy in France.

Hey guys! I heard U wanted to get a thread like this up bong, looks great!

Here is a Pacific bleeding heart(Dicentra formosa),

they are both wild and native to my home of southern Oregon, they have been blooming for a month now and are ready to peter out it looks like.
Tripco-I think there is a real similarity between your climate and mine, as I am on a similar latitude to yours, and am also a ways inland from the coast(Pacific Ocean).

Here are some pics from this years hiking/fishing so far, and also a waterfall pic from 2 weeks ago, all from the southern Oregon Cascades(the fish are mostly Rainbow trout, with some Brook trout).

Everybody's in the place? O.K. good to be back.
Spreading Seed, this undetermined succulent is probably some from the genus Sedum.
Backcountry, yes, my climate and yours defenetly have some similarity. I have a friend in British Columbia who traveled through southern Oregon and she told me, it's all like Serbia, but the western part of Serbia, 'cos you defenetly have more humidity than we, in south Serbia. We are too far from Atlantic ocean, and too far from Adriatic sea. We didn't seen the rain 10 days already (and May is usualy the rainiest month of the year around here). Temp. forecast for tomorrow: +35C (95F).
But, let's go to view some animals. In the very early April i visited vineyard of my father-in-law. I found these two lizards fighting over territory (winner gets the whole of the concrete plateau of the water tank). They were so occupied with the fight, so i almost could touch 'em. The species is, i presume, Lacerta muralis.

Tripco-Sounds like your region is more like the Sacremento valley of California. We just got done with some dry/hot weather here, the first 18 days of May were dry as a bone, and the last week of it saw temps rise into the upper 80s and 90s, we had one day were it was 97 or higher in some parts of the region.

Here are some pictures of some Trilliums I found on a scouting trip, White is the most common color, and purple ones are often found in the more remote areas, but the purple tipped ones are a new one to me. Trilliums are a damp/shade loving wildflower in the Lily family.

I went to this park last week and it was awesome. I loved the place. It was nice smoking a swisher in the woods.
