Spring inflorescence! A raceme perhaps?

On broyle’s ridge, nice day, plant walk with botany class

I like the common name beard lichens

This was a member of a group of mayapples found in the shady understory of a mixed hardwood forest on a nice spring day.

The photo was taken on a very pleasant afternoon in the early to mid spring.

Fewer violets after the frost but still some popping up around.
