First of the wildflowers blanketing the woods of Indiana

I noticed a lot of new flowers today during a hike at Sunset Farm County Park in Porter Co Indiana. One of our new arrivals is the Jack-in-the-pulpit or Indian Turnip. According to my Audubon field guide Indians ate the corms of these flowers. They are said to have a very peppery taste made better by cooking. They are called Jack-in-the-pulpit because the flower looks like a tiny man in a pulpit. 

Personally I think it looks like a tiny papoose in a blanket.  The small plants are all over in the undergrowth of the oak and pine forest in the park and are adding to the growing green of the spring.
