March 19 - Bloodroot

Post date: Mar 20, 2012 11:28:56 PM

Today a single Dutchman's breeches and many Bloodroot blooms have appeared all over the woods, scatter shot style thanks to the ants that carry the seeds.

The weather is still very warm, in the low 80's and I fear the plants are responding in haste.

I hope the blooms are not short lived, cooler weather is expected in a couple days.

Thanks to my April 7, 2011 entry, I can see that we are about 3 weeks ahead of last year.
