Donations, In Bloom

Pat and Rudy Gajdosik donated some natives from their gardens today including Wild Ginger, Bloodroot, Jack-in-the-Pulpit, and Columbine. We already had some of the first three, but not much. The aroma while cutting into the mass of ginger was in fact just like ginger.

Above is one of the cinquefoils, Dwarf Cinquefoil I think. It arrived at the rock garden all on its own, so we'll nuture that and let it form a nice groundcover.

Here's the second plant we have called "Black Eyed Susan." This one is Rudbeckia Fulgida and it's from my garden. I had a big patch of this at home for years but this year deer or woodchucks ate it all. All that's left is what I transplanted as a rescue at Eklund.

Here's an adorable little Spotted Pipsissewa in bloom.
