Some photos

 
May apples first bloomed May 19 -- and are still going strong.














Lily of the valley, peak bloom over the weekend. 















Birdsfoot violet.  This native is slightly later blooming than other violets, with a pale purple flower with yellow centers.  The leaves are totally unlike other violet leaves -- rather than being cordate, it is deeply lobed and feathery. 















Strawberry starting to form, 5/25.   
















First spiderwort flowers, 5/26.



















My mystery tree now that the leaves have fully leafed out.  I still don't know what it is. 











Finally, Virginia waterleaf flowers, 5/22.  I always thought these flowers looked like little fairytale crowns, that maybe a frog would wear.
