Smooth stalk, purple splotches, tall, flower clusters of five. I'm pretty confident this is hemlock. What do you think?
Edit: Does anyone know why it auto rotated 90, and how I can get back? It's portrait in my gallery.
My photos keep previewing with the correct orientation but then posting rotated 90° as well. Don't know why though
Not just me then. Thank you!
Lemme ask my friend Socrates...
If it's hairless with purple splotches/spots, then it's hemlock. Also, It's generally a good idea when asking for IDs to state roughly where you are.
Oh yeah, hairless and purple splotches. Front range, Colorado.
