Virginia Wildflowers

April 23, 2012 by Jeanne

My friend, fellow writer and Master Gardener, Cynthia Wood, has started a great project documenting one of Virginia’s natural treasures – Virginia wildflowers, specifically local wild flowers at Bear Creek State Park and Holliday Lake State Park (one of my favorite local hiking spots.)  She has a website and a Facebook page devoted to Virginia wildflowers.  Please “like” her Facebook page and if you drop her a note, let her know you found her information through Jeanne at Seven Oaks.
