Montana WildflowersWildflowers are numerous in Montana during their seasons. Over 160 different wildflowers are listed in the US Wildflower Database for the state. A few of the varieties include the Creeping Barberry, Broadleaf Arrowhead, Deerhorn Clarkia, Italian Clover, Orange Daylily, and the Glacier Lily.

The wildflowers are native to the country and provide many different benefits. The flowers are vibrant and many are unusual in nature. Many wildflowers hold medicinal properties which have been utilized for many centuries.

Montana wildflowers provide balance and health to the existing eco-system. They attract the right insects which are needed in the area. While the insects make their home in the MT lands, they help fertilize crops grown which becomes produce for many to eat.

Some of the animals in the wildlife cycle actually feed on the insects which make their abode in MT as well as other states. For many, the beauty of seeing and learning about the states wildflowers bring a hobby of its own. Wildflower photography brings much delight to those who enjoy the sport.
