We have many of these ephemerals in our front yard, much better than having to cut the grass. We have trillium, dog-tooth violet, wild ginger (pollinated by beetles), wild oats, solomon seal, jack-in-the-pulpit, bloodroot, blue cohosh, blue and yellow violet and they are all spreading. The dog-tooth violet are local and very likely the same genetically as the dog-tooth violet that inhabited the forest of this area 200 years ago.
What a diverse front yard! I’m working on that at my home, but it may be some time until I get there!
