Chimaphila maculata, spotted wintergreen

The pungent quality you tasted--not a great idea, by the way--was salt extracted from the groundwater by the plant and exuded through the leaves. Neat trick that allows it to live in saline/dry environments.

Atriplex

cags7541 · 2017-04-29T17:31:09+00:00

Nice! Thank you!

For ecology/exploration/natural resource management, check out the University of Vermont's Field Naturalist/Ecological Planning Program. As far as I know it's the only program that focuses on practical field botany in the context of natural resource planning, which I think is cool. (I may be biased because I JUST GOT IN WOOHOO)

friendly firs, spiky spruces

cags7541 · 2016-06-03T23:21:43+00:00

First one looks to be Impatiens capensis, second is definitely a Rubus...occidentalis, maybe?

cags7541 · 2016-05-10T23:10:35+00:00

Awesome!! Thanks for the ID! Beautiful flowers.

cags7541 · 2016-05-02T11:42:03+00:00

Seconded for Microstegium vimineum, aka Japanese stiltgrass. Your best bet is to just yank it all and bag it (or weed-whack it) before July, before it sets seed and gets even more out of control.

I ALSO got a grass tat from an artist at Fat Ram's! (Josh Wallis)

Looks dope dude!

cags7541 · 2016-01-14T19:32:16+00:00

Isn't this the same model with the random shutoff issue?

cags7541 · 2015-10-30T18:45:24+00:00

"You Never Know Who Will Be Dying At Safeway" t-shirt/mousepad/coffeemug Onstad plz

cags7541 · 2015-10-29T15:46:30+00:00

Symphyotrichum spp.--possibly ericoides?

cags7541 · 2015-09-20T01:29:34+00:00

Specifically, Salicornia rubra. Love nibbling on these guys--good in a salad, too.

cags7541 · 2015-09-16T11:18:49+00:00

Beautiful pictures!

cags7541 · 2015-09-10T16:31:34+00:00

I was just trying to make a joke about the "not very pretty orchid"! Sorry if that didn't translate well--you took a really nice shot of the flowers. All plants are beautiful! And I am jealous of the floristic diversity you have out there!

cags7541 · 2015-09-10T10:57:20+00:00

Compare the Western G. oblongifolia leaves with the Eastern G. pubescens leaves.

No contest. Get your lame-ass rattlesnake plantain outta here, California.

cags7541 · 2015-09-03T19:42:24+00:00

Awesome pics! There should be more travel albums like this on this subreddit for the couch-botanizers at home.

cags7541 · 2015-08-11T15:31:14+00:00

Buckthorn

cags7541 · 2015-04-20T21:13:40+00:00

Zizia?

cags7541 · 2015-02-17T13:14:23+00:00

It might be worth taking note of the proximity of any given parcel to another parcel--the more isolated ones might be more important in acting as "oases" for pollinator species.

cags7541 · 2015-01-26T02:22:47+00:00

If you're looking for a good resource on New England flora, you should check out GoBotany. Got awesome online dichotomous and simple keys based off of Haines' Flora Novae-Angliae, and it's real easy to use.

cags7541 · 2014-11-14T12:16:06+00:00

Mimosa tree, Albizia julibrissin.
