And this time of year, local woods look like this:
It's like an ocean of Mayapples.
I should go back to the Agway and ask them if they're actually selling any of the Mayapples. If so, I think I'll dig up the dandelions from my lawn and start a little garden stand. Is genius!

I feel the same way when I see stores trying to sell hostas. The stuff is completely indestructable and will grow if you wave a picture of it over the site you're thinking about planting. Everyone I know has a superabundance of it. Why would you need to buy it?
Mayapples are a new one on me. We had skazillions of them in our woods but I never thought of them as a domesticated or domesticatable/desirable planting.
That's funny.
WE laugh when we see garden stores selling cedar trees. Just go out to the middle of nowhere here in NJ and dig 'em up!
Bridgett, I'd never seen mayapples at the store before either, probably because they die back by mid-June. So if you actually paid for a bunch of them, you'd be left with bare dirt a month from now. Doh!
And Laney, thanks for stopping by!
