Lavendar Waterleaf -- Hydrophyllum appendiculatum



Family Hydrophyllaceae (Waterleaf family)

This waterleaf can be distinguished from the more common large-leaved variety due to the lavendar-colored flowers and the small appendages that are between the sepals. This species can be found in moist woods in mid to late May, and is a biennial.
