Went looking for wildflowers while I was at the lake and I was not disappointed. The first 4 pictures are of rue anemone. I saw many thousands carpeting whole sections! What you see in those wider shots but more and more of it. Amazing. Trout lilies grew among them but are just starting to bloom. Back in the thicker woods I saw some dwarf ginseng, most of them still in bud, and in the thick moss along the road just a few bluets were opening up.

Wood anemones were only in bud. Pink lady slippers are just sprouts a few inches out of the ground. It was so good to be back among those friends again. I always wonder if I’ll make it to this time of year and now here we are! \o/

puppy love and flowers — remus lupin

▸summary: he's absolutely sure he loves you. he's absolutely sure you love him. flowers aren't given to just anybody.

▸characters: remus lupin x f! reader, lil snippets of james and sirius and peter

▸tw: hay fever, small sadness moment

▸a/n: consider this my apology for the previous angst post. also, look at the guy. he's a smol bean

REMUS LUPIN WAS a sucker for a good bouquet. He'd always want to give them to you, yet he could never find the moment. There'd always be something that would stop him.

Today was one of the days where his plans were smudged.

It was a Hogsmeade day, so naturally, he with his posse decided to head into the town to scope out bouquets. There was one he'd seen little bit ago that he was fidgeting to buy. It was a beautiful set of red and white roses with baby's breath surrounding them. They were your favourite flowers.

Sirius Black had never felt so depressed than when he had watched his friends realise that the 'sold out' sign was for the bouquet he wanted to get for you. He felt so out of place when Remus looked like he had just been deprived of his natural resource of chocolate.

"Why not just get her different flowers?" the Black boy asked, awkwardness coating his very body in a tense feeling.

Remus sighed. "But those were for her. They were like, specifically crafted just so that she could have them. And now they're gone. And I still haven't gotten her flowers!"

James sympathised more with Remus that Sirius could. James often got flower for Lily from this very shop. Albeit, she always threw them out when she got them, but it was the thought that counted. Peter didn't say anything. He was too busy drawing stars in the snow.

The bespectacled boy put his hand on Remus' shoulder, noticing his friend's eyes welling with tears. "It's alright, mate. There's always tomorrow. And the next day. And the next day."

"But I wanted to get her those today."

There was something so frustrating about not getting something done on the day you planned. You'd feel so incomplete in your tasks, and he'd never get to sleep tonight. Well, he might drift off if he cried long enough.

The walk back to the dorms was long and awkward and tense and depressing. There were so many emotions. Remus has just been thwarted yet again in his attempts to woo you. Peter was plucking the snow off of his mittens one by one.

"Damn, mate, you are so in deep," Sirius teased, trying to lighten the mood. "I mean, I've heard of puppy love, but this just takes the cake."

"Is that supposed to be a pun?" Remus muttered. It was kinda funny.

"I suppose so."

They had only gotten to the dorm when they heard the girls. They were laughing. No, hang on. They were shrieking. And... sneezing?

The four boys entered the common room to find Lily and Marlene holding onto furniture for dear life, their faces as red as their ties. Marlene tried to heave in a breath and little was wiping her face.

And then you sneezed. They erupted into laughter again.

"What on earth is going on?" James asked, confusion filling his bloodstream. The girls couldn't find the words, too busy giggling, so you decided to speak.

"I bought flowers for Remus," you started, your nose stuffed, "and I have just found out that I am, in fact, deathly allergic to flowers."

You sneezed again. The girls didn't completely fall apart, but they still chuckled.

Remus looked at you with those big eyes of his. "You got me flowers?"

"Yeah," you said sheepishly. "I though it'd be a nice surprise, but now I'm covered in snot, my nose and throat hurts, my head kinda aches, and my eyes are red."

You sneezed, and Remus started laughing. He rested his head on your shoulder, despite your protests.

"How did you never realise you had a tendency to get hay fever?" Sirius asked, trying to stifle his own chuckles.

"I don't know. It doesn't get this bad at home. The flowers there are small, and here, I don't go out much in the spring. It's too warm. Plus, it's not like I get up close and personal with flowers now, do I?"

"Yeah, but still. It's hay fever, it's a pretty common thing."

"Like I said," you sneezed again, away from Remus' face, "there just wasn't enough for me to notice." You paused for a second. "I always wondered why I got the sniffles in the springtime. I thought it was just spring colds."

James grinned. "Well, now you know."

You sneezed twice more, Remus brushing the hair out of your sweaty face.

"I think we need to rescue you from your natural foe." He guided you by the hand outside of the common room, and he stole a glance back at the flowers you had bought for him, his heart swelling.

Red and white roses surrounded with baby's breath.

lily of the valley

In honor of May, lets talk about its flower. The lily of the valley is considered the official flower for May and in the language of flowers it represents a return of happiness, something that seems fitting for early spring. The name itself comes from the Old Testament. In the Song of Solomon, the feminine voice calls herself the 'rose of Sharon, a lily of the valleys.' Because of this, folklore says that solomon's seal grows well near it, partnering them as a married couple thanks to the scriptures. It also gets some of its other names from spiritual roots, being called Our Lady's Tears and Mary's Tears for the Virgin Mary as well as Apollinaris for Apollo. It was Christian Dior's favorite flower and has been claimed as the national plant by both Finland and Yugoslavia. Fairy were supposed to drink from the cups of its white flowers and 'gold water' distilled from the plant is supposed to be effective against strokes.

Such a well loved and delicate flower, popular in wedding bouquets and gardens across Europe, hides a dark secret however. Every part of the plant from its roots to its red berries are deeply poisonous, slowing the heart, cramping the stomach, fogging eyesight and easily leading to death. Despite this, its been used in moderation in folk medicine for centuries, even as modern as the World Wars as an antidote against poison gas.

With such a delicious mix of beauty and death, its hardly any wonder this flower has made its way into folklore. The lily of the valley is widely seen as a harbinger of bad fortune or even death. In Devonshire, UK, planting a bed of these flowers will bring a death to the family within the year and in Somserset, bringing it into the house invites death in with it, especially if there are young girls in the house to fall prey to it. In Sussex, the lily of the valley is believed to grow every year in the places that Saint Leonard's blood fell while he battled a terrible dragon. And there's also the story of how the lily fell in love with a nightingale and now waits for the bird, and his song, to return every year in May before she will bloom.
