  • Question

    Hello, although this plant is in my yard, I am assuming it is wild as it has popped up last summer. Quickly spreading I attempted to identify it via google lens books etc. Last evening, whilst cleaning up branches from snowfall, I noticed this elusive plant peeking through the snow! It is still quite green! Naturally, I had to investigate & upon touching this clump, it came loose. Curiouser then ever, again trying to identify I found this site! I do hope someone can help.

    Answer

    Dear Ne Penna, good morning. I don't recognize this plant as a species that grows in northeastern North America. Please keep in mind that Go Botany is a website dedicated to wild plants of New England (USA). Though I'm happy to assist with any plant-related question if I can, plants growing outside of this area may not be within my realm of expertise. Best wishes.
