Curiosity Week 6 - Fringecup (Tellima grandiflora)

My curiosity plant this week is the Fringecup or Tellima grandiflora from the Saxifragaceae family. I saw it in Revenna Park and it looked pretty natural in some mild cover. The fringecup is native to the Pacific Northwest and British Columbia, up to Canada. An identifying feature of the plant are the stalks with bulb flowers on them.

Week 6 - Oregon Ash (Fraxinus latifolia) FD9

The Oregon Ash is a medium sized tree from the Oleaceae family. The tree has opposite branching and opposite leaves, gray bark, small flowers and paddle shaped, winged fruit. The tree is native to Birish Columbia down to California in moist, low elevations. Some adaptations of the tree are being shade tolerant with other plants blocking a majority of sun light and being able to handle strong winds because of the wide spreading roots.
