I spotted umbrella-like plants sprouting out of the ground.  They were so intriguing.

Like every good parent with her kids on spring break, I made my teenage miniature, Armando, pose in front of the plants.

He was not happy about it.

He will thank me when he’s older.  😉

Here’s another view of the plant – with a bloom.  A quick search revealed it’s called a Mayapple.  Click the link for more information on the Mayapple.  http://www.wildflower.org/plants/result.php?id_plant=pope
