Wow I love spring, March is still way early for a lot of friends but signs of life are everywhere!
Lindera Benzoin - Spicebush (Laurel Family)
Really excited about this one because this is it's first year flowering, and because the plant is dioecious I can finally sex the plant (it's a boy!). I had more of this species hoping to have a pair but this is the only one that survived (a very helpful neighbor ripped up the rest). Anyways it's fine because now I can just buy a lady plant and maybe get some fruit!

Lindera benzoin - Spicebush
Nice native shrub, not terribly noticeable most of the year. But in the spring, when the woods are still mostly gray-brown, its little yellow-green flowers stand out brightly. If you see one, make a tiny little wound in the bark with your fingernail & smell it. I can't describe it well - exotic, perfume/incense, also somehow chemical/industrial? - but I recommend experiencing it.

Examples of many incredible hardwoods can be seen throughout the forest floor along with the thickest early ephemeral population in Cincinnati.

Northern spicebush (Lindera benzoin) is another Appalachian native prone to get an early jump on autumn. This shrub’s combination of brilliant yellow foliage and bright red berries makes for a memorable show in the local woods this time of year. The crushed berries have a potent aromatic odor, resulting in one of the plant’s other common names: wild allspice. Native Americans used the leaves, bark, and berries of northern spicebush in a variety of ways: as an herbal remedy, a strong tea, and a flavoring agent for game. The shrub is also the larval host plant for the spicebush swallowtail. The photos above were taken on the Mon River Trail.

Winter buds of Lindera umbellata Thunb. var. membrancea (Maxim) Mojama. Waiting for the soon-to-come bloom when numerous small yellow petals shine.

Lindera praecox (Siebold et Zucc.) Blume that celebrates the arrival of spring. Japanese name “abura-chan” (very oily tree) named after its richness in oily constituents.
Autumn colors look so stunning on a cold, rainy and gloomy November day.
Fall foliage in reds, amber and yellow adorn the Japanese Maple, a young Lindera salicifolia and a dwarf Gingko. Lovely pink tipped white flowers belong to the Winter’s Survivor Camellia - an exceptionally fragrant and extra cold hardy fall flowering treasure.
