this past weekend we made it down to the metropark. it was sunny and brisk. the bloodroot that i looked for three weeks ago was finally blooming. a single glorious flower cloaked by a single leaf. the bloodroot has something in common with daylilies too. the petal count can be variable, anywhere from 8 to 12 petals. dare i go with just the bloodroot ? i dare… after all this plant dares to get by with a single leaf.
