Denizens of Dry Country: Birdfoot Violet and Hoary Puccoon

Impressive displays of these two natives are occurring in the dunes region and the Kankakee sand country of northern Indiana. These photos were captured in and near the Ober Savanna Nature Preserve in Starke County. It's one of many excellent properties owned and managed by The Nature Conservancy.
Viola pedata, Birdfoot Violet




Lithospermum canescens, Hoary Puccoon.
This species has very soft hairs on the leaves. "Lithospermum" = stone seed.
