Characters and Traits

I took these observations walking along the Inspiration Point trail in Tilden Park. My favorite of these was the broadleaf forget-me-not, the leaves are a bright green, and seem to be relatively inconsistent in terms of placement on the stem, though some stems seem to stack the leaves in groups of four, all sitting at about a 90 degree angle from eachother. Toward the tops of the stems are beautiful light blue/light indigo flowers, each having five petals each with a very pretty yellow center. These flowers are very pretty to look at, and make the otherwise boring plant (sorry) a very pretty pretty plant when flowered. The buds that have not yet opened are a bit more of a light purple color.
