Wildflowers of Western Pennsylvania - MONEYWORT: (Lysimachia nummularia). In honor of Black Friday, the traditional start of Christmas Shopping Season in the U.S. here is a wildflower from earlier in the season. Like the concept of Christmas, it was introduced to America by Europeans. This perennial, evergreen, trailing or creeping vine was introduced from Europe and has naturalized throughout the United States primarily in the northeast. The species is documented in most counties in Pennsylvania. It is a member of the Primrose (Primulaceae) Family. It has small, round, shining leaves that occur in pairs. Each leaf is ½ to 1 inch in diameter. The stems may be up to 24 inches long. Their species name is derived from the Latin word “nummus” that means coin and is also reflected by its common name Moneywort. This is a reference to the round shape of the leaves of this plant that have the shape and size of coins. Beginning in June this plant produces yellow flowers with five petals on slender stalks. These flowers vary in size from ½ to 1 inch and are found singly or in pairs growing from the leaf axils. There are five petals often dotted with dark red or black. There are also five stamens. The plant grows in moist grasslands, lawns, and roadsides, preferring areas of partial shade. Although vine-like it does not climb. Its horizontal growth pattern, close to the ground, allows it to easily survive mowing. Moneywort takes well to cultivation and can be planted in both rock gardens and in hanging baskets that are drier than its normal wild habitat. It can, however, spread aggressively, frequently forming new roots from the prostrate stems. It is cold tolerant, surviving winter temperature down to -40 degrees F. Traditionally this plant was used as a herbal treatment for wound healing and for kidney and gall stones. Some still use it today as a gout treatment. Other common names are Creeping Jenny or Myrtle, but these names are also applied to other species.

Wildflowers of Western Pennsylvania - BLOODROOT: (Sanguinaria canadensis). This herbaceous, perennial species grows in rich rocky woodlands throughout Eastern Canada and United States and in almost every Pennsylvania county. It is a member of the Poppy (Papaveraceae) Family. It is one of the spring ephemeral flowers of the woodland environment. Since the flowers do not last long, keep an eye out for it during your hikes. The genus name for this plant is Latin for bleeding, referring to the acrid red-orange juicy sap that comes from broken stems or roots. The flower stalk often projects through a notch in a single pale and lobed leaf. Often the leaf is still unfolding and in a vertical position while the flower is in full bloom. After flowering the leaf enlarges to a considerable degree. The 1½ inch wide white flower with a golden orange center opens in full sunlight and closes at night. They have 8-10 petals, and 2 sepals. The sepals drop off as the petals open. The petals are separate from each other and some may be narrower than others. There is one pistil but stamens are numerous. Seeds form quickly after pollination by small bees and flies. Individual flowers may only last only two or three days. The total flowering period in any given area may only last 2 weeks. The leaves are generally 4-7 inches long, have scalloped edges, and are bluish green in color. Flowering time varies with location but usually occurs between late March and late April. The seeds are enclosed in a long, pointed, 2-sectioned capsule. The seeds have an attached nutritious lobe that entices ants to carry the seeds to their nests where they can germinate. Native Americans used the reddish sap as a dye and an insect repellant. The plant does contain toxic alkaloids and most mammals will not browse on it. In some areas the plant is known by the local name of Bloodworth, Red Puccon Root, Pauson or Tetterwort. I took this photograph April 22, 2018 on a hillside at Independence Marsh, Beaver County PA Conservation District. The recent warm spell has caused rapid development of these flowers and some were already past their prime
