Downy serviceberry is the common name GoBotany uses -- certainly descriptive given the downy-hairy underside of the leaf. Also note "leaf blades small and folded... evidently hairy...."

Unexpected update to the titan arum bloom at the university greenhouse. We tried (and failed) to get pollen, but somehow it seems to still have managed to get pollinated and is setting fruits. Plants in this family are known to form hybrids, too. Either that, or it may have somehow managed to self-fertilize or is going parthenocarpic. I'm curious if those fruits will have viable seeds inside and what they might turn into. Mongo teaching us the same lesson as learned in Jurassic Park, where they scientists made only female dinosaurs so they couldn't reproduce but then they started laying eggs anyway: "Life finds a way." Hah, yes, it does! (Just like some of the invasives out there that were introduced as supposedly "sterile" garden cultivars.)
this is along the Lamoille Valley Rail trail and across the river in Ten Bends along River Ridge Road in Morristown, It is escaping into the forest from landscaping. Lamoille County Forester first noticed this while walking by and we researched it. It is considered an invasive in western states.

Found on mesic site where upland drops into creek bottom. Loamy-sand soil type. Can’t decide between Trillium reliquum or Trillium underwoodii. Lat/Long nearby but not on site.

The Laguna Honda plant. One plant with 7 or so stems. This was discovered in 2023 by SF Rec and Parks staff.
The landowner showed us this Large-flowered White Trillium that she had found when she bought the property; that year it had 4 petals. Each year it grew another petal. We think it wants to be a rose.
Marshall Swamp
Very odd appearance - possible ABC gene mutation or phytoplasma influence? The sepals looked like leaves, in addition to the extra petals.
