7-7 Bristly Sarsaparilla, Canadian Burnet, Purple Loosestrife and skunk

 7-7

Bristly Sarsaparilla favors open woods and clearings. I see it on roadsides and under power lines.


Low meadows and, bogs and river banks are home to Canadian Burnet, a member of the rose family.


The colony forming, invasive, Purple Loosestrife is coloring swamps, wet meadows and river banks.


And a rather handsome skunk spends its evenings in my yard.
