Identificaciones de karro_frost

Unsure if this is a known population.

I've been checking out a few spots where this species may occur and got lucky, as I wasn't given coordinates or even a general area.

I counted about 7 plants in bud, with another 3 appearing to have just leaves. Location was a small hill slope just upland of a inundated swamp. Overstory consisted of Red Maple, White Pine, Yellow Birch and American Holly and various Oak species. Midstory shrubs included what appear to be Blueberry and Swamp Azalea as well as Greenbriar and Sawbriar (Smilax glauca). Cooccurring ground cover included a small white species of Violet, Coptis trifolia, Mitchella repens, Maianthemum canadense and Anemonoides quinquefolia.

I hiked five miles through the area and did not find any other populations.

Obscuring all other observations from the day. Will report site to DCR through portal.
