APRIL SHOWERS AND THE MAYAPPLE FLOWERS

Rain, rain and more rain! It is the end of April and suddenly now it’s May!! Our Dogwood in the backyard here in Philadelphia PA is losing its Bracts and they are landing on top of the not yet blooming Mayapples. I keep thinking thé Mayapples are blooming because the fallen Dogwood bracts make it look like they are blooming. But not yet upon closer inspection. Anyway, the Dogwood is already shedding its bracts!!
