Plants and fungi around Montreal's Boletim

The Peonia Lactiflora, otherwise known as the white peony, is a perennial herb species. This herb was introduced in Europe then brought to England in the 18th century. This beautiful herb can also have multiple colour ranges. The topic of our project is “Plants around Montreal,” and when looking for different plants, and my group members identified them in similar areas. Based on where I found my plants, their root structure is one adaptation that they all have in common. These plants have had to adapt to growing in Montreal, where the weather is quite humid, the plants have figured out how to survive. Compared to all of the plants I observed, the Pale Jewelweed is the biggest. This weed can grow up to 2 meters in length.

Glechoma hederacea, commonly known as ground-ivy, is a creeper of the mint family Lamiacea, according to Wikipedia. Thanks to European settlers, they have gained popularity around the world and have become naturalised in miscellaneous regions across the globe. This 'weed' is particularly difficult to eradicate because of its root network.
The observed species from my group project do not all have common adaptations; some, like the stiff clubmoss, do not have large flat leaves to increase the surface area to volume ratio.
According to Lake Forest College, the silver maple is a particularly good bank stabiliser; it helps moderate soil erosion around stream banks and prevents nutrients from being washed away. This is thanks to its soft wood and its ability to grow relatively fast.
