Question
Asking around what this plant is. No one knows so far. Has red stems. Leaf stem bleeds white when picked. New leaves from center look shiny. About 1-2 ft high. Edge of yard in woods
Answer
Dear anbourque, good morning. You've photographed a species of Nabalus (rattlesnake-root). These species are native members of the composite family. We can't tell for certain which one you've pictured, but it may be Nabalus trifoliolatus (three-leaved rattlesnake-root; synonym: Prenanthes trifoliolata). Best wishes.
