Bloodroot flowers are among the first to bloom in the spring. I came across this beautiful little flower while hiking through the woods today. Part of what makes these flowers so photogenic is their early appearance after the long flowerless winter. The flower is often fully out while the leaf is still furled around it.

Yes, they are all over my Mom's woods, and there is even one growing out of the stone wall in the driveway. There seem to be higher numbers of them this year for whatever reason.
Real beauty!
