Description: Photographic study by Brian Johnston of Lathyrus latifolius, with many fine images, both macroscopic and microscopic.
A Close-up View of the Wildflower "Sweet Pea" Over the last few years, I have systematically searched for wildflowers in the vicinity of my home.  Many species are ubiquitous.  What surprises me is the number that grow in only one location.  I often wonder what strange phenomenon led to their occurrence in a particular spot.  The sweet pea plants studied in this article grow in an area less than one square metre in the dappled shade of a stand of male staghorn sumac trees.  The plants bloom every year in early June, about a metre from the sidewalk shown in the image below.
