Mystery Plant #90001

Added: 2011-01-01

Found at the side of the boardwalk at Oliphant Fen, Bruce Peninsula. These photos were taken in mid-August 2004.

Suggestions
CK, MO: Lysimachia terrestris (Swamp Candles) WM: Could be Prairie Loosetrife, becasue Loosestrifes sometimes have these peculiar growths, and this species ocurs here. But the flower arrangement indicates Swamp Candles.
