this place is called "big goose pagoda". it really doesn't look like a big goose. what is that about? and why is this pagoda so ugly? they should look at the beautiful ones in japan and learn from them. there's nothing wrong with being delicate!
Baskets full of False Solomon’s Seal (Maianthemum racemosum), one of my favourite early spring delicacies this treasure is in the Asparagus family and is also a cultural food with deep roots in the Doukhobor culture in the Kootenays, where it’s known as Suziki. Make sure you’re not picking the real Solomon’s Seal (if in the shoot stage this isn’t a concern as both are edible as shoots, but the real Solomon’s Seal is no longer edible once the leaves emerge). I absolutely adore these thick spears fermented or pickled, but they are pretty awesome served the way you would asparagus, and I happily crunch on them raw in the woods. They have a fresh, sweet, asparagus aroma at the base, and if they don’t- it’s not the right one! These babies are popping all over the woods and on sunny hillsides in the Okanagan right now and are easy picking I would call them Poor Man’s Asparagus as they are far more abundant in the wild than the always elusive wild asparagus, but that wouldn’t do the amazing flavour the justice it deserves 😊. My kids insist it has a peanut after taste and today I have to say I noticed it as well, unique and intriguing.

Shot on Granville Bridge. It was amazing seeing the frog swing by from east to west. Actually, only 2 minutes earlier, the Holiday Inn building and the two cranes in front of it were at the left corner of this frame stood above the fog. Sorry I did not pull out the tripod fast enough to catch it.
Agoseris glauca.

False solomon's seal, Smilacina racemosa. This one on the slope near the house; quite a few in the woods.
One of those plants that's easy to pass by on dry prairies or other rocky areas as the flowers are just dull greenish white.

Early May in Haddam, CT. My first thought was that deer had eaten off a portion of the plant. Thanks to mtndust for the ID of False Hellebore. (Thanks also to the CT Botanical Society for their excellent web site. www.ct-botanical-society.org/) Since False Hellebore is a poisonous plant, there must be another explanation for the broken stem.
view original for best view of her :)
accidently touched her (when i picked up container) and disturbed the nest - she was on the lip of a flower box in my garage - so i relocated them :)

Flat Rock Cedar Glade and Barrens is an 846-acre natural area in Rutherford County. It is located about eight miles east of Murfreesboro, Tennessee in the geographic center of the Central Basin. Flat Rock supports a mosaic of forest types, oak barrens, open grassland barrens, and cedar glades, including federal and state-listed plant species and glade endemic species. These glades are characterized by exposed limestone that is typically interspersed with cedar-oak-hickory forest that occurs in deeper soils. This limestone, with its many sinkholes, is a karst topography commonly associated with glades.
Flat Rock Cedar Glades and Barrens support a diversity of annual grasses, including sporobolus and aristida. Rare plants associated with these cedar glades include Tennessee milk-vetch (Astragalus tennesseensis), Missouri primrose (Oenothera missouriensis), and limestone fame-flower (Talinum calcaricum). Small creek tributaries and flat gravelly wash areas provide specialized habitat for rare plants, including the federally endangered leafy prairie-clover (Dalea foliosa), the state-listed yellow sunnybells (Schoenolirion croceum), low nut rush (Scleria verticillata), and Boykin's milkwort (Polygala boykinii). Little bluestem (Schizachyrium scoparium) and cedar trees occur in pockets of deep soil scattered across the glades. Open grassland barrens found in deeper soils are dominated by little bluestem and side-oats grama (Bouteloua curtipendula). Flat Rock barrens support numerous state-listed species, including wavy-leaf purple coneflower (Echinacea simulata), southern prairie-dock (Silphium pinnatifidum) and slender blazing-star (Liatris cylindracea). These same species occur in the open canopy post oak forest areas referred to as an "oak barrens." Flat Rock is also significant as the type location for the federally listed Pyne's ground-plum (Astragalus bibullatus).
Flat Rock Cedar Glades and Barrens is one of Tennessee's most ecologically significant natural areas and is an important research natural area. It is located only a few miles from Middle Tennessee State University.
about five fire trucks showed up on the corner of 4th and market when i was waiting for the bus, but it was really wet out and no fire to be found. very anti-climatic.
but at least we had some 71 mph winds. it was definitely strong enough that you have to watch your steps.
