Ratty should be able to find it. But it won't grow over here. The soil is too sandy. Too bad... I love finding it in the rich shady spots. <blockquote>sharkbytes, That's too bad, I'm sure you miss it since you got to see it in NY.

sharkbytes,
That’s too bad, I’m sure you miss it since you got to see it in NY. Ratty has to stop fighting mutant ninja squirrels and go back to Wonderland.

On the way home from a potential client yesterday, I drove along the Huron River and saw a bunch of skunk cabbage (leafed out) and one clump of bright yellow march marigolds! <blockquote>Monica, Time to get down on your knees and sneak a peek. The flowers are worth a look. I haven't spotted and Skunk Cabbage :( but the Marsh Marigolds are starting to pop now. They just might be tonight's post. We'll see if I ave the energy to take a hike after work. Oh jeeze, I better get going.</blockquote> Wild ginger grows in many parks around here, but I have only ever seen its leaves, NOT the really cool-looking flower!!!
