Wild poinsettia and prairie tea

Wild poinsettia (Euphorbia dentata) in the middle of the picture.  Another name for this plant is toothed spurge.  Below the Euphorbia dentata is a carpet of prairie tea (Croton monanthogynus).  At the trailhead to the Wabash River trail that is at North 9th St. near McAllister Park.
