Fireweed: Gets its name from its ability to quickly colonize recently burned areas. Reproduces via underground
runners forming huge thickets. The deep fuscia petals with deeper colored, thinner petals in between, the red stems and often
red tinge in the leaves only add to the name. The red tinge is not always present. Location: Cranberry Overlook on Highland
Scenic Highway, MNF, WV.
