Arden and the Prairie Crocus



Arden, just east of Neepawa, has the largest Prairie Crocus in existence (photos above).
This year is the one hundredth anniversary of the year 1906 when the Prairie Crocus became the floral emblem of Manitoba (see http://www.manitobaliberals.ca/2006/03/happy-100th-birthday-to-prairie-crocus.html )

This afternoon I stopped in at Arden to visit.
