Vermont bugbane

Again taking the weekend off of my slightly obsessive recollection of our recent trip to Italy...

We have a couple bugbane plants here at the house. They start slowly and sometime only "bloom" days before our first killing frost. During the late summer (I cannot believe its September) they start to smell like the best grape candy you can imagine. We're not there yet, but the leaves are delicate and very finely detailed and a joy to see up close.
