Question
Found in a trail through the woods, town of Lake George, NY. There were plants that had the same form but were green, although this purple color was more common. I apologize that the photos are not the greatest quality. As always. thank you!
Answer
Dear SunnyMona, you appear to have photographed Lysimachia quadrifolia (whorled yellow-loosestrife). When emerging, the leaves can be quite red, but will change to green and flowers on long, slender stalks will grow from the axils of the leaves. Best wishes.
