| The Bluebead Lily is striking even without its spring flower |
A graceful citizen of the Boreal Forest that is beautiful from spring to snowfall is the Bluebead Lily, also known as Clintonia and Corn Flower.
It starts out in the spring with lovely yellow flowers, shown in the photo below. Those flowers then turn into glass-like blue beads over the summer. The flower, the berries and the elegant leaves with their parallel veins are a common sight just about everywhere you walk in the bush.
