[Scilla, Belmont MA; 4/1/10]

The rains have stopped, basements are getting pumped out, and the muck is drying. The forecast for the next few days is sunshine and plus or minus 70° (F).

Anyone know what these little green jewels are?

might be a variety of euphorbia. glad to hear you are having some sunshine again!

Strawberries. Oh, the other! I don't know but they're pretty.

I didn't notice the strawberry leaves at the bottom until Roberta mentioned them! :-)

I don't know what the green guys are, but I see scilla every spring and never can remember what they're called! Thanks for reminding me!

Thanks, Sky. I googled around and it looks like euphorbia indeed - creeping spurge, to be specific. (Gads, sounds like an illness. "I have a case of the creeping spurge...")

Roberta: I didn't notice the strawberries, either! Thanks for pointing it out.

Lorianne: I love scilla. I remembered the name, but not how to spell it - with a c? an s? I only found it by looking up last year's post from a trip to the Arboretum.
