Question
Here's a close-up from my submission yesterday, and I hope the resolution is good enough. The plant in question is the one with the two opposite facing long green leaves, just protruding from the ground, Wetlands, bog on Monadnock. Thanks for your previous help yesterday. Great service you do. Tks
Answer
Dear ryoung, those leaves look like Clintonia borealis (yellow blue-bead-lily), a native species of north temperate and boreal forests. It produces 2 or 3 of these slightly folded, thick-textured leaves from the summit of an underground rhizome.
