Spring on the East Coast

I just spent the last week in central Mass at a professional conference. The forsythia was in full raging bloom. This scrub is from Oleaceae, the olive family, and is known for it's flowers which produce lactose, one of the few sources in nature who does so outside of actual milk.

  1. I was wondering if forsythia was blooming in ToC. It was always in abundant bloom in Westchester during this time of the year.
