Spring/Summer Flora

That Panic grass next to it is going gangbusters. I'm going to guess Dichanthelium microcarpon.

 

[Teegate]

Yes it is. I believe a new Death Camas plant is growing as well next to the other.

Thanks for the photo Guy. I'm now of the mind that it's Dichanthelium mattamuskeetense.

Jessica looked at this page and she thinks you are correct.

Dichanthelium mattamuskeetense (Mattamuskeet Witchgrass) - FSUS

We will go back in a week or so and will double check.

Saw this today on the Forked River. Kind of early for this, in my experience.

Saw this too. I think climate is really warming up for this state.

Fantastic! Would love to find one of those.

We were looking at the white orchids in a spot last weekend and they were not that far along at all.

And I saw this, this morning,

 

[bobpbx]

I thought this was going to be a white orchid in Cape May. It turned out to be a ragged fringed orchid. Common in South Jersey.

From July 6, 2012 everything was blooming early

Death camas I believe. Are they doing well at that location?

 

[oji]

Yes, it's PB death camas. After the fire I only saw 1 blooming, yesterday I saw 4 in a small area. I didn't get to search around because the sun was setting.

A little meadow beauty.

Nice photo of the pinweed Tom. I've never seen one in flower like that.
