Darkwoods Violets (viola-orbiculata) are appearing now in shady spots along with the Western Trillium (trillium ovatum) and are about a week later in blooming. These quiet little plants grow with no attention from people other than to be admired. Showing up in early Spring, they will last until early Summer. This little beauty should not be confused with the blue clumping violet that has become a noxious weed in some areas. Just another perfect example of why the Oregon Coast is a very special place to live.
