Broad leaf or Carolina spring Beaut’
Claytonia caroliniana
Virginia spring beaut leaves in background just starting to leaf out
Claytonia virginica
Photographed in RRG in mixed mesophytic woodland, Carolina spring beaut has a few great lakes region United States pops and is mainly found in the core regions of the Appalachian Mountains. A true disjunction as a lower ozark plat pop is in Arkansas; where as the rich alkaline mesic woods and bottomland forests are packed with Virginia spring beaut until you hit semi arid regions and where the central plains starts becoming the rocky mountain region.

3-31-24: First Wildflower Walk of 2024...
Hello everyone! I hope this post finds you well. We finally had a good soaking! Lighting, thunder, and lots of rain! The rain gauge said 1 3/4″ in the end. I went Moral mushroom hunting on Saturday and found around 20, but most of them were on the small side so I left them behind. I found a few that were big enough to fill a 9″ skillet. Then on Sunday, I went to my friend Kevin’s secluded woods…

Spring beauty miner bee, Andrena erigenia, Andrenidae
Spring beauty miner bees are a solitary, ground-nesting species that relies on spring beauty flowers (Claytonia virginica) to obtain nectar for themselves and both nectar and pollen for their larvae. The hairs on the female bee’s legs collect the striking pink pollen to bring back to her larvae. Found in the eastern United States and up into Canada.

Virginia Springbeauty (Claytonia virginica)
One of the earliest spring flowers!
It is called "fairy spud" because it produces tubers that you can eat just like potatoes!
A particular species of mining bee depends almost entirely upon this plant!
It can go in a lawn—it will blanket the ground in blossoms in early spring before mowing starts, and die off before summer. The leaves look just like grass. (I think it probably needs fallen leaves for support and moisture though!)

So most of the plants that began showing signs of life in April last year are doing so now, but I am still waiting on:
Adiantum pedatum (maidenhair fern) Aruncus dioicus (bride's feathers) Asclepias viridiflora (green comet milkweed) Cardamine concenata (cutleaf toothwort) Cardamine maxima (large toothwort) Claytonia virginica (fairyspuds) Clinopodium vulgare (wild basil) Comptonia peregrina (sweetfern) Echinacea purpurea (purple coneflower) Epilobium cilliatum (fringed willhowherb) Galium boreale (northern bedstraw) Hypericum punctatum (spotted St. John's wort) Lathyrus ochroleucus (cream pea vine) Mertensia paniculata (tall bluebells) Monarda fistulosa (wild bergamot) Pycnanthemum tenufolium (slender mountain mint) Ratibida pinnata (greyheaded coneflower) Solidago nemoralis (grey goldenrod) Symphyotrichum ericoides (white heath aster) Trillium cuneatum (little sweet Betsy) Viola blanda (sweet white violet) Viola canadensis (Canada violet)
And we'll see if any more of the new ones show themselves this month. I suppose I should also track whether it's early in the month, the middle of the month or late in the month.

Welcome to Spring! 
The woods are full of round 2 of wildflowers.....violets(blue and yellow), and this little striped flower.  Some of the striped flowers are vivid and others are kinda  pale, but they are all so cool....I think they are called Claytonia Virginica.  
Nature is cool
