Took a trip to northern NY in an attempt to find flax-leaved aster (Ionactis linariifolius) where it was collected nearly 100 years prior. Didn’t take long to find it.
Also found a green snake (Opheodrys vernalis) on the trail.
In the sandy soil on the edge of pine woods there was some blue ground-cedar (Diphasiastrum tristachyum).
