I'm always thrilled to find fellow Canadian gardeners in challenging zones. <br /><br />In re to the middle plant (yellow flowers), my searches landed on: <i>Chelidonium majus</i>. A non-native, brought to North America by settlers as a herbal remedy for skin problems such as warts as early as 1672.<br /><br /miss mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08779663826025791655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196584061773851542.post-19534977491617538692009-07-04T11:46:31.219-06:002009-07-04T11:46:31.219-06:00Jan: I think that is a good possibility as well.

As you might guess from the name, the berries that may show up later are not good for you.<br /><br />Here's a couple of good pictures of it:<br />http://www.cwnp.org/photopgs/adoc/acrubra.html<br /><br />I don't think I've ever seen the yellow HomeBugGardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11845748276844681280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196584061773851542.post-69732809891826922112009-07-03T05:59:26.740-06:002009-07-03T05:59:26.740-06:00You have me wondering about that yellow flowered p...You have me wondering about that yellow flowered plant now too !

Good job at identifying the plants! We have most of those plants in my area too. Do you ever pick and eat/cook the V. trilobum berries? Some call them "highbush cranberries" and I've seen commercial syrups made out of them (not the best though, I'll admit).Gardenistahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08129253261044774675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196584061773851542.post-87750602896506033542009-07-01T12:26:47.738-06:002009-07-01T12:26:47.738-06:00Jackie: They were charming.
