Random Rippling - Wildflower Walk at BR Park
posted: Apr. 11, 2024
Scenes from the April 7 Wildflower Walk at Broad Ripple Park led by Bill Malcolm. Check our calendar for upcoming walks at Broad Ripple Park and Marott Woods Nature Preserve.
Many of the wildflowers we saw on the walk will bloom for only a week. Once the trees leaf out, the sun is blocked from the ground.
