The lovely mottled leaves of the Trout Lily (_Erithronium americanum_) are poking through the leaf litter on the south slope today. We're probably about two weeks away from serious flowering. The trillium (_Trillium erectum_) clump we transplanted last fall has obviously taken well to its new home. It has about 20 flower buds. And thanks to an earlier discussion here, I've been watching the beaked hazelnut (_Corylus cornuta_) flowering. The male catkins are producing pollen today (they weren't yesterday). The tiny red flowers are not obvious, but they're there, ready to accept some of that pollen. The PEI Macphail Woods Forest Ecology Project website has some nice descriptions of our native plants. Here's the one for the beaked hazelnut: <www.macphailwoods.org/shrub/bhazel.html>. Doug Linzey Arlington
