It took a lot of photos of Northern Comandra to get anything worth posting : ) this is just a very small plant, whose leaves get lost amongst all the other plants in the forest. Once located, it is only then that you can find the tiny, greenish flowers growing from the leaf axils. They are so "insignificant", but really quite pretty little gems when you do manage to find them. Photographed these tiny beauties in the forest at Sacred Rocks Sanctuary, near Rimbey, Alberta, on June 26th.
"Flowers are in slender-stalked, 2 to 4 flowered clusters from leaf axils; usually the centre flower is female and outer flowers male; petal-like sepals 1 - 1.5 mm long, greenish purple, inconspicuous.; appearing mid-summer." From borealforest.org
