You can see this plant now in the forests around us. It especially
likes openings in lodgepole.
I haven't yet keyed this out to exact subspecies, but I betcha it's
probably A. cordifolia.

This is a blog about the happenings on the tail end of Lazy Z Rd, Nederland CO. Not that I expect to report on high drama. No, rather, I like watching the weather play across Thorodin Mountain. Want to see what I'm seeing out my window (worth a look). Live. Click here --> LazyZ.Org <--

This lovely plant, Sambucus microbotrys, is in the Honeysuckle, or
Caprifoliaceae, family. Its pyramidal flower cluster distinguishes it
from its domestic cousin. It will have red berries.
