The Skunk Cabbage is Spreading


The woods are being overtaken by the spreading skunk cabbage in the wetlands to the rear of my cottage.

I've never heard of skunk cabbage, is it stinky as the name implies? It's kind of pretty.

I love skunk cabbage - Don always drives me around in the spring to hunt the first few that come out. I grew up in S.E. Alaska and skunk cabbage was rampant - and it wasn't until years later that I learned we were supposed to hate the smell of it, it always reminds me of spring and I long for a touch of the scent in late winter.
