What a beautiful afternoon. We didn't get out for too long, but the bloodroots made my day.
Spring Beauty (Claytonia virginica). See our post on spring beauty here.
Mayapple (Podophyllum peltatum) -- not blooming but I love the shoots.
Skunk Cabbage (Symplocarpus foetidus) -- the flowers are almost done.
See our post on skunk cabbage here.

Violet (Viola sp.)
Early saxifrage (Micranthes virginiensis).
Lesser celandine (Ranunculus ficaria) -- pretty but non-native and horribly, horribly invasive.
Bloodroot (Sanguinaria canadensis). See our post on bloodroot here.
