The Design:

A cluster of delicate prairie crocuses seemingly poised to soak up the springtime sun.

The Prairie Crocus:

This issue features the prairie crocus, Manitoba’s floral emblem adopted in 1906.
The beautiful yet hardy prairie crocus is truly an all-Canadian flower. It starts to bloom the moment days start to lengthen after a long prairie winter, often pushing its blossoms through melting snow. Dots of bluish-purple and light lavender decorate the white landscape while fine hairs on the flowers and leaves provide added protection against sudden drops in temperature.
