Glade mallow



Glade mallow (Napaea dioica).  Along Swisher Road between the I-65 overpass and the entrance to Prophetstown State Park.   This distinctive native plant was considered by Charles Deam to be one of the rarest of Indiana plants.  I have seen glade mallow along the Wabash River at Lyboult Park and at Davis Ferry Park.  This is the first time I've noticed glade mallow at this location although I have never seen it here before this season.
