Back in Northern Oregon, I went to visit my population of Cyp montanum on Mount Hood. There was a hot spell known as May here in Oregon and temps were 10 to 15F over the average almost every day. By June, we are now 10F below average almost every day. None-the-less, the Cyp montanum were ahead of schedule by about a week and I missed peak flower quality. I still got a few shots.
Notice the wasp coming in for a landing.
There was an abundance of spiders this year!
My favorite plant. He always is a single nice stem with a good round flower. Last year, the flower was eaten by a deer.
