Plants need light. That's why many plants bloom before or during leaf emergence. At this time, most sunlight falls on the forest floor. In early summer, when a dense canopy has formed, all the floral splendor is over again and the forest belongs to the shade specialists. It is particularly colorful in spring in the beech forest. Corydalis and wood anemones transform the forest floor into a purple-white sea of flowers. The yellow anemone also forms large stands. Lungwort, primroses, violets, and the inconspicuous mercury add to the mix.
