Forget equinox

It's really the opening of the Bloodroot that marks the arrival of Spring. Isn't she exquisite?
The veins on her underside are a lovely purple shade.
She's so eager to bloom, she runs ahead of the leaf.
These are just a few of the babies in my garden this year ... I planted four and now I have eleven. Lucky me!
A spider's eye view. Feeling small isn't always so bad.
