“Damn it, I’m a photographer, not a botanist!” Which is why I can’t identify half the plants, shrubs, and flowers I see while hiking. I can tell the difference between deciduous and coniferous trees and I can identify things like daisies, buttercups, irises, lilacs, Lotus blossoms, etc., but beyond what’s common knowledge, I’m typically lost.
So, when I came across this in a marshy area of the trail I was hiking one day, I had no idea what it was. But while hiking another trail on another day, I came across an information plaque that labeled this a “Pitcher Plant.”
And here’s the underside…. Odd…
Until next time…
