Eureka!  Today I saw my first wildflower of 2022.  Well, a bud, at any rate.

Colt’s Foot is an herbaceous, riparian perennial of the Aster family. It is always the first wildflower blossom to be seen on Southern Ontario’s creek banks and trails.

In witchcraft, Coltsfoot is used in a spell to bring back a wandering lover or to bring tranquility to those who are troubled.

Lady Bird Johnson famously said, Wildflowers are the stuff of my heart! and I couldn’t agree more.  Finding my first Colt’s Foot of the year with its bright, happy colour makes me feel bright and happy too which is why it is todays tiny beautiful moment.
