Question
Hi, This plant or sapling has finely serrated, alternating ovoid, flat leaves, with brilliant red fall color on both the stems and leaves. After the first freeze, the leaves and stem turned brown. This plant was found in Scarborough location where several pine trees had been removed In recent years. Thank you so much for your assistance.
Answer
PaintedTrillium, I'm sorry, I can't identify the plant based on the images provided. I have several educated guesses, but none of them are confident. Images of the winter buds (for future reference) would have helped with this small seedling--I can't make them out clearly in the series of images. Beautiful colors, as you mentioned.
