The ferns in Spring. Such a joy to watch them from when the fiddleheads first come out of the ground and then unroll and the shoots begin to grow upward. Actually the ferns seem to shoot upward because it happens so fast which is amazing to watch! Our front bank looks awful at the beginning of spring with weeds and dead leaves all over and then the ferns start to appear. Within a week the whole front bank is covered in ferns and is beautiful! How lucky we are!

These ferns remind me of the first time I tried eating them in an Italian restaurant I was working in. I only remember a little bitterness but not how they were prepared. I love their curled design. betsey
