Bishop's Cap - Common Mitrewort (Mitella nuda)

Hello There!

 

This is an extremely small wildflower that is found within moist forests and thickets within the boreal forest. Because it is so petite, it is often not spotted. Unless you zoom in with the camera, you won't see how fancy this bloom really is. The Woods Cree used the leaves to treat earaches.

 

I found a few of these at the Brokenhead Wetlands Interpretative Trail a few days ago. Going into the boreal re-charged my batteries which were sorely needing a nature fix.

 

Thank you so much for stopping by and for your comments. I do LOVE hearing from you! Have a great weekend!
