Description
Alaska's most vibrant flower is the fireweed. It is a lovely purple color as it blooms. The flowers start at the bottom of a long stem and as the summer progresses the blossoms travel upward. There is a legend that says when the fireweed blooms get to the top of the stem, summer is over. A bonus is that after they bloom, the remaining stalk turns a vibrant red for autumn color.
