Bloodroot is the NNNPS native plant of the month for March. The Martins have nurtured a hillside cascade of these delicate plants, and they are now in temporary bloom. Providing the sun is out, and the temperature reaches more than 50 degrees F., it’s our good fortune that NNNPS members and guests are welcome to visit their fabulous, ephemeral spring display on Sunday afternoon
