Spring ephemeral roundup - 1 Bloodroot (Sanguinaria canadensis) - 2 Blue Cohosh (Caulophyllum thalictroides) - 3 Yellow Trout Lily (Erythronium americanum) - 4 White Trillium (Trillium Grandiflorum).
Did you know that bloodroot seeds are ant-dispersed (myrmecochory)? I love their clasping leaves.

my dad, famously hard to impress
me: oh I'm so sad to leave my cat with my parents between tgiving and xmas!
my mom to my dad: "I think we need to get a tree early for Izzy"
the next day: “I think Izzy would be really happy if you put up the lights”
every day since: "Izzy is still under the tree"
"She loves loves loves the tree"

Folks with websites w a section for decolonization/values/DEI materials, what do you call that tab? I haven't quite landed on a title that I like -- it used to be "decolonization" but then I added things outside that scope & would like room to add future DEI/antiracism/anticolonialism content.
