September EcoQuest: Jumpseed Journey
I found the American Jumpseed, which was the September challenge on the New York Botanical Garden Ecoquest challenge. I first looked up the American Jumpseed on the iNaturalist map, and I was determined to find it in Central Park, as there were already so many observations there. I started by looking where there were a bunch of observations of the American Jumpseed, and I went to that location of the park. This happened to be kind of close to the Ramble in Central Park. Since this was the September challenge, and I was looking in November, I expected the Jumpseed to look a bit wilted since it was probably not at its peak. I tried to match the shape of the leaf that I observed from previous observations to the ones around me, and I found it! The most distinguishing aspect about the plant I think were the viney string like parts of the plant with white flowers on it. I easily found that, and matched the shape of the leaf. It was really satisfying to find!
