Swamp Pink



This little beauty was put on the "threatened species" list in 1988. The second largest population of swamp pink is found right here in North Carolina. We are second to New Jersey of all places. Go figure.

The swamp pink grows in wetlands. In this photo it is sittin' pretty in the bog.
