Green on green

This photo was taken on 24 July 2013, at the Reader Rock Garden. I enjoy photographing Dandelionswhen they are at this stage, but I can't remember what plant this "receptacle"(?) belonged to.

It's only -4C (windchill -8C) this morning, 1 March 2015, so I might just go for a bird walk with friends. Looks like the forecast is for some snow tonight, so I know I should make the most of the sunshine today. So far, next week is looking pretty good weather-wise.
