It’s a delight every year when the jewelweed blooms. It’s a weed - yes! - but the flowers are as delicate and beautiful as anything in a florist’s greenhouse.

Vacation sketching, flowers of North Carolina. Jewelweed, also known as spotted touch me not. Impatiens capensis, named touch me not for the seed pods that pop open when touched. Native to eastern US in swampy and moist areas. The seeds taste like walnuts and have to be carefully collected.

I think this jewelweed is infected by the ascomycete fungus, Mycosphaerella impatientis. I've gone back to this location multiple times and have never been able to find it again. #fungus #fungi #PlantPathology #jewelweed #impatiens #mycology #ascomycetes #FungiFriday #nature
