GOLD DISCOVERED IN SULLIVAN WOODS

Well, actually it was planted - Green and Gold Chrysogonum virginianum .
Green and Gold
This lovely plant, similar in structure to ajuga in its mat forming ability is now gracing the pond and bog area of Sullivan.  Look around, you will see it appearing in many places in Sullivan Woods as it is happy in shade and sun and has a long blooming season.  While you are exploring Sullivan, be sure to look across the road to the woods behind Sullivan to see the Red-bud Trees Cercis canadensis, which are now in full bloom.
