When Knitting Was a Manly Art

Our earliest spring violet. Marsh Violet (Viola palustris). Though it looks white, it is usually described as being purple to blue. These guys have just a touch of purple.

The native Red-flowering currant (Ribes sanguineum) is a welcome sight in the early spring. Nothing brightens up a day better than these pretty red blooms.

Another early spring bloomer is Winter Hazel. Bare stems with bright yellow flowers and red stamens make a striking statement in the garden.
