This year we are excited to reinstitute a great tradition from Wildflower Weekends in the past, t-shirts with a logo developed specifically for the event. After a poll of our members, we have selected the gorgeous American trout-lily (Erythronium americanum) for our native plant spotlight.
Many thanks to the artistic talents of KNPS member Kendall MacDonald (Kendall’s bio is below the items) for creating the gorgeous illustration for our 2023 Wildflower Weekend! This beautiful image is featured on an adult t-shirt, a coffee mug, a kid’s t-shirt, and an adult hoodie.
Even if you are not planning on attending Wildflower Weekend 2023, you can still purchase a shirt or coffee cup with this lovely image.

Kendall McDonald, Wildflower Weekend Logo Designer
Kendall McDonald is an artist, botanist and lichenologist that grew up in Owen County, Kentucky. She developed a love for art and nature at a young age, and carried that with her into her education and career. After getting her bachelors degree in biology at Morehead State University, she started at the Office of Kentucky Nature Preserves as a heritage botanist and lichenologist. For the last 5 years, she has been an active member of the Kentucky Native Plant Society as a member of planning committees and a co-editor for the Lady Slipper newsletter. Her passion for biodiversity permeates her art, as her collection mostly consists of paintings of Kentucky native species and landscapes. She combined her love of spring ephemerals and wonderful Kentucky landscapes to create the design for the t-shirt and stickers for Wildflower Weekend 2023! The design is a close up of the gorgeous native Yellow Trout Lily (Erythronium americanum) over a background of Cumberland Falls.
