Dear Birders:
Need flower ID help.
Mystery flower! This attractive flower is 20-22? high, does well in the
shade. Has a single 1 ½? flower on a stem, 4 petals, white, blooms in July.
Leaves are alternate, simple, entire, heart shaped, pointed (1 ½ times as
long as wide), up to 5 ½? long including petiole, petiole is 1-1 ¾?. Stem
is slightly rectangular. Came with European wild ginger, Asarum europaeum,
(they didn?t have A. canadense) we bought in North Carolina for ground
cover. This mystery plant has about taken over the area. Do you know what
it is? Help!
Go to <http://www.flickr.com/photos/paul-w-schwalbe/> to see five photos.
Could not find it in Newcomb's - Wildflower Guide; Peterson Field Guides -
Wild Flowers; Audubon's - North American Wildflowers, Eastern Region;
Peterson's Field Guide to Pacific States Wildflowers; as well as several on
the web including Wildflower Identification. Could it have come from Europe
with the Eu. wild ginger?
Help, help!
Thanks.................... Paul & Glenna
