+JoPo2010 Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 (edited) I have no idea what it is, but you guys have helped me before. Can you help me identify yet another? Thanks! Oh, I guess I should mention that I found it at Little Qualicum Falls, on Vancouver Island. Edited June 16, 2012 by JoPo2010 Quote Link to comment

+JoPo2010 Posted June 17, 2012 Author Share Posted June 17, 2012 Wonderful! Thank you lampethree. So the plant is called Allotropa virgata, or it's common name Sugarstick...just what it looks like. Nifty! I knew the forums would once again solve a mystery for me. I LOVE the forums! Quote Link to comment
