Re: bloodroot


Bill, you lucky dog!

I tried to move a couple bloodroots from a friend's wooded backyard a few 
years ago.  They never came up.  I'm reluctant to try again, as I hate to 
waste the plants.  The local school board just bulldozed a couple acres of 
woods for a new school not far from here.  I hate to think what was lost there.
