This lovely, unfamiliar woodland (?) flower emerged in a shady section of my garden about three weeks ago (early to mid-March). It has chartreuse flowers or bracts with yellow anthers. It currently forms a neat, low clump about three or four inches high.

Linneaz writes: Haquetia epipactis. It may have a common name, but I don't know it. Mine grow in a moderately sunny spot in the Pacific Northwest. I think they are really cute. Posted: 7:41 pm on April 7th
