Sign of spring


The white flowers of the Bloodroot are always a marker of spring for me. I planted them in a partially shady spot under a small Japanese Maple tree. Luckily, they have multiplied every year. This spring I counted more than a dozen blooms. Within a few days, the flowers will drop their petals and their lily pad-shaped leaves will unfurl. We all made it through another long winter...
