roundleaf serviceberry, Amelanchier sanguinea
Roundleaf? Not particularly. It's the fewer, larger teeth on the leaves that set this one apart. It is most common in the Great Lakes drainage, but you might find it in CT(E), GA, IL(E), IN, MA(S), ME, MI, MN, NC, ND, NH, NJ(E), NY, OH(E), PA(E), TN(T), VA, VT, WI, WV, NB, NF, NS, ON, PE, and QC(L). Wilderness State Park, Emmet Co MI, 6/1/11. Rose family, Rosaceae.

Hi Denise
Just thinking it's almost time to come look for Platanthera flava. Bob
Hi Bob:
I found it on Eber Rd, about 1.5 mi S. of Kitty Todd Preserve 1/4 mi from Metroparks land. I’m guessing it came in on the RR. (NwOhio)
Apparently so, but not on all plants. The brown only shows a little in this image.
Regarding umber pussytoes, one reference calls it brown-brackted pussytoes. Are it's bracts browner than other pussytoes?
