Skunk cabbage Lysichiton americanus
I”m posting today at Simple-Green-Frugal Co-op about making composted manure tea for the garden.
Ahhh! I always looked forward to seeing skunk cabbage when I was growing up in Pennsylvania! One of the harbingers of spring there!
Lee and I were walking on a Weyerhaeuser road a few days ago and I stopped and said, “wow, I can really smell the skunk cabbage”. I stopped and looked around and sure enough I saw a bunch of them in a swampy bit of ditch. I like the smell of them smell of them. They remind me of my childhood playing down in my parents swamp while looking for salamanders and frogs and agates.
