Located on the western edge of Eugene, Oregon, the West Eugene Wetlands (WEW) is a beautiful and rare area of grassland habitats. Comprised of less than one percent of the original native wet prairie, the WEW is home to over 200 species of wildflowers, plants, birds, and animals, including four threatened and endangered species: Fender’s blue butterfly, Kincaid’s lupine, Bradshaw’s lomatium, and Willamette daisy.
The BLM's Eugene District, in collaboration with other Rivers to Ridges partners, works to protect and restore this vital wetland ecosystem in the Southern Willamette Valley. This unique project involves federal, state, and local agencies, as well as non-profit organizations, working together to manage lands and resources in an urban area for multiple public benefits. Each year, Willamette Resources & Educational Network (WREN) provides hands-on, minds-on environmental education to over 1,500 local students.

Wiesen-Storchschnabel (Geranium pratense) im Naturschutzgebiet „Bachwiesen/Leopoldswiesen“ im Hockenheimer Rheinbogen
probably a plant that never found it's way to trade. a real variegated plant with nice leaves in spring. Flowers soft pink. I still have the original plant , and kept all the variegated seedlings around it this year. Some were flowering allready and they were of different colours (some blue and some pink)

This flowers for many weeks starting in May and if you give it a hard prune imediately it stops flowering you should get a second flush of flowers a few weeks later
