September Flowers

September flowers are in abundance at Paradise Meadows in spite of occasional September showers! Although the weather has been mixed, it is still great for hiking & exploring.

A few king gentian are just now starting to bloom. Arctic lupine and white-flowered rhododendron are continuing. Some blueberries are ripening on the bushes - the leaves are not yet turning colour.
