“And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.” ― Anonymous, Holy Bible: King James Version Today finds me contemplating nature and the beauty that is so evident in the woods around us. This is a trillium that I shot upnorth! Here are some fun facts: "Trillium is pollinated by ants. If the flowers and leaves are picked, the plant can die, as it won’t have enough energy to survive through the winter. Some species are listed as threatened or endangered. In some places, such as Michigan, Minnesota and New York, removing trillium from the wild is considered illegal. Native American Indians used the roots for medicinal purposes and they also ate the leaves as vegetables. Trillium is a favourite food for white-tailed deer. In folklore, trillium symbolizes modest beauty." courtesy of (http://www.theblogfarm.com/fun-flower-facts-trillium/)
