Common Spiderwort


And here is yet another spiderwort. Mid May, and late in their season.                                                    I believe this is actually the Common variety of spiderwort. There are others...  And they are pretty common in the prairie March to May. You might say that in spring that all your worts are showing!
Actually these two make me imagine a couple turkey vultures swooping low over the park. Except that -if this were in color -  the bright blue flower head would be a dead giveaway- ha!   No bald heads here. These flowers are very classy - the perfection of understatement. 
I should have yet one more spiderwort ink to post and then, finally, on to something else...
