Claytonia...finally a shot of them open!

These are lovely - not sure if becoming delighted by plants not seen before or increasingly depressed by my lack of knowledge lol

Goodness, No! Don't feel that way! I only just found out what these little flower's proper name was because of Spritzhenry!!! I've always called these "mayflowers". So don't be depressed! I have plenty of pics that I took in the woods today that I have not posted yet because I have to look up the names! Don't know if you find the same forces at work as I do, but, as I near the end of my 6th decade of life, I'm lucky if I can remember what's a petunia!! lol...sometimes....

These are beautiful things. What a wonderful wildflower. This wood is just behind your garden too, isn't it?

Oh I wish, Gt...It is behind the houses just across the street actually... our area is surrounded by a wide "greenbelt".. Alas I have neighbours on two sides and a field on the other side...and my front garden goes right up to the sidewalk...no grass to cut!!! I put an 8 ft fence around my entire back garden... It's the law here, if you have a pool or pond.

wow they ar so delicate and small i have never seen it befor .... i do have trilliums in my back yard though.

Hi Sandygrove! nice to hear from you again.

Hi to you to :D
