An Eerie, Early Spring (but at least the Bloodroot’s up!)

Stuff is popping out all over, almost too fast to keep up with.  So far we have over twenty Bloodroot (Sanguinaria canadensis) blossoms either open or coming up in our yard.  I am now inspired to add this handsome citizen to our Native Plants section in the extremely near future, with a page of its own.  A favorite of herbalists and commercial root-gatherers, Bloodroot has legends and stories to tell.  Coming soon.
