Variegated Solomon’s Seal, Polygonatum odoratum ‘Variegatum’ (Asparagaceae)

This photo was taken in the afternoon of April 11, 2012 in the Hahn Horticulture Garden. When the plant is just emerging from the ground, they look like little, red fingers! Talk about having a zombie apocalypse scare…
Grape Hyacinth, Muscari armeniacum (Asparagaceae)

These psudo-grapes were taken in the morning of April 9, 2012 in the Hahn Horticulture Garden
Spanish Bluebell, Hycinthodies hispanica (Asparagaceae)

This misleading plant was taken in the afternoon of April 11, 2012 in the Hahn Horticulture Garden. The Spanish Bluebell is not related to the Virginia Bluebell (Mertensia virginica). In fact, they aren’t even in the same family!
