To pause at first encountering it in spring is to find a moment of truth, a moment of memory and promise. Let winters come, life will flower on as long as Earth shall last.For video "Rolston viewing a Pasqueflower" see: https://hdl.handle.net/10217/192784.born digitalarticleseng©1979 American Museum of Natural History.Copyright and other restrictions may apply.
