Question
Could you id these two woodland plants, found in Nova Scotia, Canada, thank you
Answer
Dear Ursula, the two plants you have posted images of are relatively common, native species to the northeast. The one with larger leaves is Gaultheria procumbens (eastern spicy-wintergreen). The one that trails over the ground with opposite leaves that have a light-colored midvein is Mitchella repens (partridge-berry). I hope this is helpful.
