Passionflower & Queen Anne's Lace

From my Greenway bike ride today:
Queen Anne's Lace


Passionflower
The Official State Wildflower of Tennessee
While Iris is the Official Flower

I almost missed the Passionflower which was mostly under the leaves along the trail beside Ravenwood. Glad I saw it because it is one of my favorite wildflowers and only blooms for a week or two in early summer or late spring. It is also called Maypops, Passion Vine and Apricot Vine. How wonderful to have a greenway with all these beautiful wildflowers in every season!
