Field Notes

"Foliage: Large and triangular. Bright green. Nicely fragrant when crushed. Flowers: Citrus-scented stalks of white flowers stand upright but with a curved, drooping tip. Their shape inspires the common name of lizard’s tail." Source Credit: http://www.hortmag.com/plants/lizardstailplant Editor's Note: I shot the photo using an iPhone 3GS camera that does not perform very well in high-contrast light, that is very bright- and very dark light. Notice how the white flowers in direct sunlight are "blown out" (color saturated) in the photo.
Habitat:
Huntley Meadows Park, a 1,425 acre wetland area in Fairfax County, Virginia USA. Related Resource: http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/huntley/
