Here's a nice patch of may apple (
Podophyllum peltatum)
, a rather lovely native wildflower that is at risk from invasive plants, such as garlic mustard, which is growing in thick patches just outside this photograph. When garlic mustard moves in, it grows faster and taller than many native flowers like this may apple or the lovely trillium, and so crowds it out. It is a tragedy.
