Question
Found this on Schoodic Peninsula. Have gone through all of my flower books and can't seem to find out what it is.
Answer
Dear weoellers, you have photographed a fruiting individual of either Hypericum virginicum or Hypericum fraseri, most likely the latter (Fraser's St. John's-wort). These two species have been segregated in the genus Triadenum, but are not included in the genus Hypericum (so you might find them under a different name in some guidebooks). I hope this is helpful.
