Plants, Flowers and Other Things

JimB:
Since starting the Animal Tracks topic I thought it might also be fun to have a topic for plants and "other things". By "other things" I mean mushrooms, fungus-es etc. Some of the pics I do know the identity of the flower/plant but others I do need help with. Here is the first one.

Some info if it helps. This picture was taken in late mid to late August and on Isle Royale.

colporteur:



ahh -

JimB:
That is my response also Cp. I showed this to someone else who has pointed me to what he believes it to be but I'm not convinced. This is one of those times that I'm hoping others can help. I wish I had include more of the plant and especially the leaves. I'll be more thorough the next time I take pictures of the unknown.

Also this plant isn't very big at most about 12 inches. Assuming I'm remembering correctly. It's been about a year and a half since that picture was taken.

Vicki:
I am not botanically inclined, so I cannot say much more than "Fascinating. Let us know what you find out."  :)

JimB:
Vicki, I must say this not my strong area either. I do prefer animals and their tracks :)  but flowers isn't far behind. I'm hoping that someone will have a good idea. Someone told me that they believe it's a relative the Baneberry but while they kinda-sorta look similar I don't think it is.
