Late Flowering Daisy
Originally uploaded by Ontario Wanderer
Found at the Hamilton, Ontario waterfront on November 13, 2009. It was one of fifty-seven species that I saw in bloom today in the same area. Also included in the fifty-seven were three species that I had never seen before in November. My list of wild flowers found blooming in November is now up to 201 species seen in the last 11 years.

That many? Wow, i din't really think about it before. Pretty neat. I brought in a pot of mums I had given up on as it gave of two little flowers. Didn't have the heart to leave it out.
I first stumbled upon some very late blooming flowers in the 80's and found, when I really started looking, that there are many individual flowers in little micro-climates here and there that bloom quite late. Over the years I have found many little places to check so I do find more wild flowers that most people think exist out of season.
