Swamp Smartweed (Persicaria hydropiperoides)Observer
seanblaneyDescription
Unusual look for P. hydropiperoides (suggestive of hybridization with another Persicaria perhaps). Perennial and rhizomatous in standing water. @danielatha - do you agree with P. hydropiperoides for this one? I don't see a better alternate ID.

@michael_oldham @wdvanhem - Any thoughts on this one? In a disturbed stabilized old sand dune near the shore of Lake Ontario. I had intended to check it in August on a second visit but missed it. Maybe Carex brevior?
