• Question

  This is not a flower, so maybe you can't help--thank you, though. I recall a plant that grew along the roadside in Wisconsin, that resembled a small dark green segmented plastic tube. I don't think it had any leaves at all. Just a tube. I may have seen it also in the Northeastern U.S., but I'm not sure. It's not common, but I would run across it sometimes under power lines while collecting wild asparagus, which also grew under power lines due to birds dropping seeds there, and good sun.
