Fireweed


Fireweed adds so much beautiful colour to wild places. Photographed this particular plant out in Kananaskis recently, when we botanized some forest along the edge of Barrier Lake.
"Epilobium angustifolium, commonly known as Fireweed (mainly in North America) or Rosebay Willowherb (mainly in Britain), is a perennial herbaceous plant in the willowherb family, Onagraceae. It is native throughout the temperate Northern Hemisphere, including large parts of the boreal forests.... It has a tendency to quickly colonize open areas with little competition, such as sites of forest fires and forest clearings." From Wikipedia.
