A "Wild Bergamont (Monarda fistulosa) - Purple
Bergamont (Monarda media) - Oswego Tea dilemma (Monarda didyma)
... Clarification requested!
I guess the main question here is ... where are the "colour boundaries"
for each species? |

This is Wild Bergamont for sure, I think. It's usually a pale blue
colour.
- yes, it is M. fistulosa
(CR)

But this I am unsure about, as the colour is a richer
blue, a little darker than usual. The difference in colour doesn't
show up really well in this photo, unfortunately. Is
this still Wild Bergamont? |

0409Sep18 Schneiders Woods\Goldenrod5836 |
IDENTIFIED as S. altissima Is this goldenrod...
*S. altissima (Late Goldenrod)
*S. canadensis (Canada Goldenrod) or
*S. gigantea (Tall Goldenrod)?
It's probably not Smooth
Goldenrod, as the stem was not entirely smooth. I just included it
in the list because these are the 3 famous and frustrating
Goldenrods to differentiate.
Found at Schneider's Woods (Waterloo, Ontario), September 18/04.
