This plant made up much of the ground cover at this location. It had short but very sharp spikes on its stems and the leaf was slightly prickly underneath. The plant had white flowers but I didn't see any fruit.

St. John's Wort is all over the bluff overlooking Holmes Harbor. I believe the plant is good for sustaining soil to prevent slides and erosion. In the summer, the plant blooms bright yellow flowers. It may have been planted long ago because the most elevated part of the bluff has huge amounts-is it a vine or a bush?

This 4 inch plant was growing next to where my neighbors were supposed to plant their garden next to the bluff. The soil was disturbed, but is now overgrown by grasses and other unknown plants. This indicates that it is perhaps a weed. The leaves have a texture similar to the texture of mint. It looks like it may be edible-not sure.

Small tree, growing in shade most of the year next to a pear tree. This plant is attractive to pollinators, and anybody for the fact because of its scent. It is sweet to the nose, but not overpoweringly bitter.

Growing as a clumping mound next to dandelion, and some grass. Flowers small and white with 4 petals (many clustered together). Buds are a dark violet with lavender stripes where it will open. Leaves basal all up stem with other larger ones by themselves.

This is a tree that I found but I need help identifying. As far as I can tell the branches are opposite and relatively bare except for a few broad leaves with edged leaves and all the leaves look new and light green. It is nearby some Salmonberry and alders. Also, the area is wet and cool and nearby a stream bank.
