At Ives

This is swamp valerian. It's a fen indicator. If you see it, you're certainly in a fen. I noticed on this walk that the trails at Ives are getting grown over. Get out there and walk, people! It's not only safe (well, you need to avoid rattlesnakes), but fun. And you could bend down and bet a snootfull of valerian. Terrific aroma.
