Re: [Native Gardening] help with identification?

 

Thank you, Frank and Benia.

Sounds like they can both have a home in my garden, but maybe I should move that dimunitive little eupatorium purpureum back from the edge, while it is still diminutive.

Both are Eupatoriums...the first one is purpureum, the woodland Joe Pye Weed which tends to be shorter when in heavy shade or the seed germinated late last year so its shorter now but will be taller next year. The second is rugosum which is the very common White Snakeroot in our woodlands

 

We abuse the land because we regard it as a commodity belonging to us. When we see land as a community to which we belong, we may begin to use it with love and respect.

Not sure about the purple one, but the white one reminds me of White Snakeroot.
