Rough-fruited Fairybells / Prosartes trachycarpa
This photo was taken on 23 August 2015, at Brown-Lowery Provincial Park. These berries of the Rough-fruited Fairybells plant always provide a lovely, bright splash of colour to come across in the forest. I will add a previously posted photo of the small, delicate, white flowers of this species in a comment box below.
The fruit can be green, turning yellow, to orange or red, and they are pretty in all these colours, each one being about 1 cm across. They have a rough surface, but look rather like velvet. Fairybells is a native plant, belonging to the Lily family, and grows in moist deciduous and mixedwood forests.
After visiting my daughter in hospital the day before, I thought I had better get out and do a bit of walking, so I drove SW of the city and plucked up my courage and went into Brown-Lowery. I only went in a short way, but managed to find a few fungi fit to photograph. The light is never good in the forest, but the sun managed to come through and touch a few of the mushrooms.
I met a couple of delightful young women along the path. I tried to point out an American Three-toed Woodpecker that was unfortunately very high up in a tree and barely visible. I had seen two others further along the path. Also lots of small birds, some of which were Warblers, but they were much too fast and distant for me to get photos. Then we got talking about mushrooms : ) Had a very interesting and enjoyable chat with them.
