The Flowers at the Mathis Vineyard
by Peter Mathis on April 06, 2016
Throughout the year several different plants and trees bloom in the vineyard. Most are along the periphery, while a few are blooming cover crop between vine rows. Take a look:
Paper Whites - a cheery January bloomer nestled in the rocks
Manzanita - The trees on the vineyard periphery bloom in January
Baby Blue Eyes - a March bloomer
Crimson Clover - is part of the cover crop between vine rows, blooming in late March
Purple Russian Irises - These wildflowers bloom in late May, cousins to the large bearded iris which bloom in March
Sweet Pea - These flowering vines bloom with the cover crop and are edible! They begin showing late March up through June. (Those remaining standing in June are growing wild around the vineyard and not part of the cover crop.)
