Sorry about the loss of the two baby plants. Sometimes it's frustrating when a lot of work and expectations hang in the balance.
I wanted to report a new baby I found today in my garden of May apples.Podophyllum; Linnaeus
Species: P. peltatum
I believe a new hybrid has possibly popped up. The leaves are totally different than the species growing . The new leaf in question is glossy in comparison to the leaves of the species grown. The shape of the new leaf is shaped similar to 'Spotty Dottty'.
See pics. What do you think?

New leaf different shape showing stem and base into soil.
It's the only new shaped leaf in the whole area . I will have to protect this one and mark it to know where to look for next spring.
