Concerning my bugs....
What ever they are they are about to hatch. They do not move when
touched. They are like in a sack of some sort. I cleaned off the ones I
found after taking those pictures, and escorted them outside, but I know
that will not be the end of my problem.
And yes, Don is right about the name of the plant Geum triflorum. These
are very small, germinated last summer, just taken out of dormancy and
moved up about a month ago into a 4" pot from a plug. Was kinda shocked
when a few are starting to bloom already!
