Question
Hello, So I am working as an intern, and we have been completing vegetation surveys and there are a few plants we can't seem to identify. Here is one we have been seeing quite often. We are working in central long island
Answer
Dear vbrink, the last two images of the robust herbaceous plant that is in fruit is Erechtities hieraciifolius (Americanu burnweed). This is a common species of disturbed soils. The seedling in the hand I cannot help with (sorry). Best wishes and happy to help further.
