wall hawkweed, Hieracium murorum

Wall hawkweed is another one of us, a European immigrant. This batch sure picked a nice spot to put down roots, next to a waterfall on the Keweenaw Peninsula. Then you go a short distance down the road and there's a thirty foot pole that shows how much snow feel in the past year. The Keweenaw is a great place to visit for scenery and wildflowers, or to jump off to Isle Royale. But pick your season thoughtfully. Wall hawkweed grows in AK, CT, IL, MA, ME, MI, NH, NJ, NY, VT, WI, BC, NB, NF, NS, ON, QC, and GL. Keweenaw Co MI, 7/12/14.
