This section is going to be about the flora that you would see in Yellowstone National Park.
If you visit Yellowstone, you might see a Lodgepole pine tree which looks just like a normal pine tree. You may also see Coniferous trees which looks just like a blue spruce which you can also see there. You might also see a glacier lily which is a yellow flower whose petals grow backwards and bud in autumn and go through the winter and then grow as soon as the snow melts. You can also see a fairyslipper which is a beautiful purple, white or pink colored flower that actually looks like a fairy slipper. You could also see a silky phacelia that is a tall, purple furry looking flower that looks like it would really feel silky. You may also see a bitterroot which sounds like it would be an ugly flower, but is actually a beautiful pink or white flower. You might also have the chance to see a beautiful flower called a Colombian Monkshood that can be purple, blue, pink, or white and from a side view, they might look like a butterfly. If you are lucky enough, you could see an Indian Paintbrush which is a lovely shade of red and from a top view, might look like a rose. If you see a plains prickly pear, you can prove that the Yellowstone National Park has a wide variety of flora. But, it usually will have a lovely flower on top of it. You could also see a fringed gentian which is almost the complete opposite of a plains prickly pear because it is purple or blue and is soft on the outsides which makes it look 'fringed.' Another flower you might see is called a shooting star whose petals go backwards just like the glacier lily and they come in a variety of different colors and they kind of do look like shooting stars. Finally, you could also see a yellow monkey flower which is yellow with beautiful red or orange dots on it. |
