Jewelweed is all over the neighborhood with the orange flowers and ripening seeds. This photo is from the end of Wagner Road. The dew is beading on the leaves, due to the oil on the surface of the leaves. If no dew you can spray with a water bottle. The seeds are getting ripe enough to "pop" when touched. A nature experience for kids of all ages. The oils are said to be good for poison ivy, rub on after an exposure.
