  • Question

    I believe that my photo is of a Persicaria amphibia (Water Smartweed) but It doesn’t look quite like the other pictures I’ve seen. It was right on the edge of a brook with slow moving water. In fact the water was drained until a few days ago because of work on the dam down stream. So the plant itself was not touching the water but likely was previously.

    Dear OliveBrown, Good afternoon. I'm sorry, but there are no images associated with your question. Without images, I won't be able to help. If you are having trouble uploading pictures, feel free to email them directly to me at ahaines@nativeplanttrust.org and I will try to assist.
