We walked down to the boggy area on the property just below me. This is a wetland that will not be developed (thankfully). I wish I would have taken a picture a few weeks ago when the skunk cabbage was in full bloom. This was a vast swath of yellow and green and it was incredible with the sun shining through the cabbage flowers. After seeing it like that I know why the plant is also called "Swamp Lantern." At any rate, this is what it looks like now. The largest leaves of the cabbage are between 2-3' long. . .quite amazing.
