Native plants are starting to grow and bloom. The early Indian Plum and Red Currant are pictured in previous posts. I took a stroll today to find some more bloomers.
This is salmon berry. The pink flowers are followed by fruit that starts yellow and turns to orange.
One of my very favorite spring natives, skunk cabbage grows in wet soil. In spring you can tell at a glance where seeps and bogs are, for they are filled with these large-leafed yellow flowered plants.
Aren't they pretty? And lined up along the seep. One of the seeps.
And yes, they are called skunk cabbage for a reason. Their aroma is somewhat reminiscent of their black and white namesake.
