Question
Starflower and a type of club moss? Lycopodium ??. some sphagnum moss and not sure about the long slender green leafed plant... two long slender leaves coming from the ground at the same point. Wetland bog … on Mount Monadnock. June 15, 2019 So much stuff in such a small area of the bogs. Thanks...Bob
Answer
Dear Bob, good morning. I'll help as much as I can--the plants are rather small in the image so I can't identify all of them with confidence. The clubmoss you mention is a species of Dendrolycopodium (tree-clubmoss), of which Dendrolycopodium obscurum is a common species. There are also, it appears, a species of Vaccinium (blueberry) in the photo. One plant with white flowers is Lysimachia borealis (starflower), a native member of the Myrsinaceae. If you get closer photographs of the individual plants I can help further. Best wishes.
