A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Project Noah Nature School
Senna marilandica
"Member of the pea family with pinnate leaf structure and dense flower clusters in the leaf axils in the upper part of the plant." I was sure I had found something invasive when I spotted these bright gold flowers and blue-green foliage so reminiscent of wisteria or trumpet vine. I was very pleased to learn it is a native wildflower.
Native to the Eastern US.
Spotted near the overlook of Johns Mountain Wildlife Management Area
