A chorus of pleated corn lilies mingles with the subtle melodies of bluebells, roseroot, and wild onion. The poisonous corn lily was once dried and traded by native tribes to make snuff for clearing the sinuses. It is still used today for making a powdered, garden insecticide. Both the showy roseroot and fragrant wild onion, by contrast, are nutritious and edible. Such a diverse ensemble of wildflowers is common in the lush, subalpine meadows of Colorado’s Weminuche Wilderness.
