    I encountered this multi-stemmed woody plant on an open, western-facing talus slope in Rutland County, VT on May 7th. Is it possible to identify it from the photo?

    Answer

    Dear mmchugh, good afternoon. I've pondered over this image for some time and I don't know who this plant is. I've also shared the image with two other professional botanists who likewise are unable to identify the plant. Do you have other images? Please email me at ahaines@nativeplanttrust.org to discuss if you would like to.
