Amazingly, the first record for Norfolk County. I counted 10 clonal colonies of C. lupuliformis and at least five times as many C. lupulina.

In a deep, organic maple swamp with other Lupulinae sedges.

Photo 3 with achenes of C. lupulina for comparison.

mid-stem leaves in comparison photo: S. flexicaulis (L), hybrid (centre), S. caesia (R). Lower stem leaves of hybrid were broader, with obvious lateral veins (see e.g., plant at bottom left of photo 1)

All of the wild gingers (Asarum canadense sensu lato) I was able to find throughout this sandy floodplain forest had glabrous, short-acuminate, strongly reflexed petals like this plant. I am not sure how widespread this variety is in Canada, but certainly is expected to be Carolinian in distribution.

WDV 255 (to UWO).

Glomerules not cylindrical, leaves with callous apices, inflorescence branches spreading more than 90 degrees (per FNA key). Growing with Comandra umbellata, Antennaria parlinii ssp. fallax, and across the road from a population of Thalictrum thalictroides, another locally rare species of well drained, sandy soil. This species has never been recorded in Niagara, Ontario but is known from adjacent Niagara County, New York.
