Curled Dock
Rumex crispus
Central Penjajawoc Preserve
Bangor, Maine
The flowers of Curled Dock aren't very pretty but the leaves and fruit have a simple beauty if you take the time to really see them. The leaves are long, lance-shaped and have curled margins (right photo). The fruit (pictured below, 1 September 2016) has heart-shaped wings to carry the seed by wind. Photos by Donne Sinderson
