location approximate

One mature specimen, several immature scattered nearby

It was very nice to see a colony of this along the dripping cliff. With binoculars, I saw a flew late blooms.

Distinguished from triosteum perfoliatum because it’s leaves leaves are not as obviously perforated by its stem

Found 2 more small ones nearby

In an open wet area of an old gypsum mine.

3 plants, close to each other, growing on a west facing Acadian forest slope about 5m from a stream.

Two white

I always have to take note of the occasional wrong numbered plant like this one. I saw two on the same hike, probably one km apart.

albiflorum - white form

Scattered in the bog, only in dryish depressions between hummocks of spahgnum. Hard to see, but one of the few green things this time of year.

Water level was very low. In shallow bay.

8 thalli on red maple, near stream

Quite a few in a patch

Exciting find!

Forma alba?

On a wet, shady bank of clay, slumping onto the rocky beach. Some plants just barely above the high tide line.

The last two photos are when I went back a week later. The flowers had opened up more.

On gypsum boulder

Small patch close to the river

Only NS location

The plants were located at a pull out along the Cabot Trail.

Fun to find this in bloom right along Balancing Rock Trail
