I love spring green. (Now I have to get out my field guides and find the name of this lovely wild flower.)(Later: I can't find it in the field guide which suggests it may be an introduced species. Anybody know what this is?)Visitor Shawn suggested that this is a species of Solomon's Seal and, judging by the photo in Wikipedia and others in Google, he is correct. Thanks Shawn!

Situated on the far west coast of Canada, on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, Victoria is the capital city of the Province of British Columbia. Its benign climate (the warmest winters in Canada) and placid lifestyle make it a favorite retirement location as well as a popular tourist destination. About 400,000 people live in Victoria and adjacent communities.

I believe it's Soloman's Seal. Maybe.
Hi Shawn,
Thanks. I believe you have identified this plant. It seems it doesn't grow naturally in this area so I guess it is an introduced species. I found these in Highrock Park where they are certainly thriving in a wild environment.
We're finally in full bloom here too!
Beautiful close-up.
Fifty shades of green.
