Planters and window boxes at the Pizzeria on W. Main Street are filled with bright flowers.
Now in bloom in hardwoods and on gravelly banks: "Bloodroot."
The root contains an orange-red juice that was long used by the Native Americans as a dye for their bodies and clothes and has been used successfully by American and French dyers.

Art White has access to more sorts and models of earth-moving machinery to play with than most people, but he has been using a tidy little "excavator" to clean out an overgrown hedgerow next to the Hop Yard at the Waterville Public Library.
