I kind of took them for granted before.<br /><br />@Layanee: Yes, it's fascinating to look under the Mayapple canopy and see all the beautiful blooms hiding there.<br /><br />@Carolyn: Oh, I agree it's great to learn about new plants from each other. I'll be hopping over to your blog soon!<br /><br />@Gabrielle: Aren't they fun?! We'll have to compare notes on their progress throughout the growing season.

Make sure to check on their progress from April through October.<br /><br />@P3: Yes, the fruits look sort of like an apple and they ripen in the fall. The fruits are just starting to form now.<br /><br />@Rose: Thank you! I can't take credit for the planting because they naturalized in that patch. Pretty nifty.<br /><br />@Karin: Yes, our lot includes a small forest that stretches onto a glacial drumlin. It's a small conservancy that can never be developed. It's fun to see what naturalizes back there.<br /><br />@Masha: Thanks! It's so fun to compare notes with gardeners like you in other regions.Beth at PlantPostingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10473637655960119672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3905148744278712684.post-29046955940658437102011-05-27T12:04:03.355-05:002011-05-27T12:04:03.355-05:00I always enjoy my patch- similar to yours- but did...I always enjoy my patch- similar to yours- but didnt know about the rabbits or jam!

But the emerging umbrellas and the hiding flowers are unique. Also, the fruit is interesting to watch in late summer.<br /><br />@Donna: Yes, they're definitely at rabbit level. Must be a pretty show for any animals crawling under the umbrellas!Beth at PlantPostingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10473637655960119672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3905148744278712684.post-51030939399282047502011-05-24T18:45:47.252-05:002011-05-24T18:45:47.252-05:00one of my favs for sure...my flowers haven't b...one of my favs for sure...my flowers haven't bloomed and I await them patiently at rabbit level....Donnahttp://gardenseyeview.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3905148744278712684.post-41363503398315962842011-05-24T12:45:04.910-05:002011-05-24T12:45:04.910-05:00OMG...I'm so jealous of that patch of Podophyl...OMG...I'm so jealous of that patch of Podophyllum...stunning!
