PICKEREL WEED


Pickerelweed  (Pontederia cordata)

Observation
I observed this plant on 17 September 2011 while attending the Wildlife Conservation Festival at the John Heinz National Refuge Center in Philadelphia, PA. This plant was found away from the edge of the trail at the refuge. There were many other weed-like plants surrounding it. The flowers appeared to be lilac in color, the stem was erect and tall and the large leaves were green.
