Milk Maids in bloom


Milk Maids are one of my favorite plants. They grow in shady forested areas, and have clusters of usually white, but sometimes pinkish or purple flowers. They are edible and very tasty - a fresh green and slightly peppery flavor, similar to arugula. Sparrows like them too, sometimes the leaves will be nibbled a bit ragged around the edges.
