  1. Lori,
    I have never seen or heard of such a unique plant/blossom. This is a cool looking bloom.

    Thanks for adding to my intellect :)

  2. It's called "Dutchman's Breeches". They are in the same family as Bleeding Hearts. They are quite literally carpeting the forest floors right now. I find them on the north slopes of wooded hills. Here's a link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dicentra_cucullaria I learned some new things myself about them. ;-)

    Thanks for your comment!
