Pitcher Plant Panoply

Not a tracking post, but I just could not resist!  For those of you living near Acton, MA there is a sight to see.  In the Acton Arboretum there is a boardwalk across the only bog on the property.  Currently in the bog, there are over 65 pitcher plant flowers blossoming.  These carnivorous plants are all in one patch.  I have never seen so many at once!  You can download the trail map from actonarboretum.org and find the Highland Bog Loop.  Easy access from the road or hiking in.  Beautiful gardens on the other side, too.  An easy hike that is worth it.  Go tomorrow!
