The ones that look familiar are the third, fifth, sixth, and eighth ones (from the top down). None are positive IDs, but here goes:<BR/>#3 looks like Beauty Berry, Callicarpa americana. Does it produce purple berries?<BR/>#5 looks like one of the mallows, maybe Sida rhombifolia.<BR/>#6 looks like one of the horseweeds, Erigeron sp.<BR/>#8 looks like dog fennel, Eupatorium capillifolium<BR/><BR/>#2 has flower heads that look like some sort of mint. Are the stems of that plant squared?<BR/><BR/>Could be that none of these is correct, but we gave it a shot! You might try collecting some of the plants or some representative leaves and taking them to your local agriculture extension agent. Good luck! Hope little piggy iggy feels better soon.swamp4mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03500364141244115390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22305148.post-40611894544087693432007-09-15T16:38:00.000-04:002007-09-15T16:38:00.000-04:00thanks jayedee... yes what a couple of months.

I just saw him eating the rosary pea. not a photosensitive but still a bit toxic. do you have names for any of these plants? the one i call rosary pea is the fourth one up. but i'm not sure. When you flip the little pea shaped leaves there are little nodes there. Looks like a rosary to me!<BR/><BR/>thanks for checking in!<BR/>jojojojohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10739043673679583206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22305148.post-21847828733869079812007-09-15T16:09:00.000-04:002007-09-15T16:09:00.000-04:00jo i have tons of these plants around here and hav...jo i have tons of these plants around here and have never had a problems with any of the critters. *shrugs* maybe i've just been lucky!<BR/>poor lil iggy! he's really had a time of it, hasn't he? at least he's on the mend now though.jayedeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17212207586795373262noreply@blogger.com
