  • Question

    Hi again, I have one last flower ID. As before, I found these over July 4 weekend on the Massachusetts-New York border in foothills in a partly shaded area that is likely dry a lot of the time. Can you ID them please?

    Answer

    Dear BrooklineBiker, you appear to have photographed Anemone virginiana (tall windflower). This is a native member of the Ranunculaceae. There is a fourth image of a narrow leaf, but it is without additional images and perhaps was uploaded by mistake (and I don't know who that leaf belongs to without additional images). Best wishes.
