  • Question

    Northern Bog Violet? side petals flair forward, no glands on throat hair tips, blue and white stripes down lower petal, leaves seem right. Blooming now so the seed pods are probably not cleistogamous. Growing along beaver-slowed brook, shaded by mature forest nearby. Images of leaves and fruit available. Anything else I could go check out?

    Answer

    Dear jorie.hunken, Go Botany is experiencing a glitch in that only one image loads repeatedly when multiple images are uploaded. Therefore, I can't view the entire set of images to help you out. If you would email them to ahaines[at]newenglandwild.org, I can view them all and assist with the identification.
