  • Question

    I think this plant is Water Smartweed (Persicaria amphibia) though it doesn't look quite like the other photos I have seen. It is located on a brook (slow-moving water) right along the edge. The water was actually drained until just a few days ago due to dam repairs downstream. So while the plant itself was not touching the water it likely was previously.
