Friday fabulous flower - yellow lawn edition
This isn't the first time TPP has blogged about this neighborhood side lawn, but it's just so damned cheerful to see this early every spring. The Phactors have long had blue lawns (see links on above page) and the first harbingers of blue are poking up here and there before the entire lawn turns blue, but this hedgerow of yellow (Eranthis hyemalis - Winter aconite, buttercup family) has been here for more than half a century showing that if you just don't disturb things, plants can do well. This little bulb (corm) is a bit hard to get going sometimes, and while the tree rats don't eat them, they do dig them up when newly planted. And then they flower, fruit, and disperse their seed until eventually you have a bed of early spring golden-yellow.
