Being on one of our favorite riding roads, Harley and I often stop at this little bridge to stretch our legs. It's a nice quiet highway and I love to stand still for a moment and listen to the water, the birds, an occasional bee buzzing past.

For some reason, I'm drawn to water and love how it relaxes me.

This past Saturday we stopped here, and when I walked across the road to look over the edge of the bridge embankment, I saw this really big weird looking plant.
It kind of looks like a giant Violet or Aloe. I tried to zoom in on it and I don't think it's aloe... the leaves don't look plump enough for that.
I pose this question to my readers out there.
Can you name that plant?

I hope you all had a great weekend! After logging in 325 miles on Friday and another 200 for Saturday... I'd say my weekend was absolutely awesome!
Have a great week everybody!

It's... green. Sorry I am not good at specifying plant life.
its definitely not a sage or aloe. may be a violet, it has the right fuzzy leaves. hmmm...
SonjaM,
I agree! It is green! lol!
It kind of looks like those swamp flower Lily pad like thing... only it's not floating on the water. :/
Oh well... it remains a mystery!

Mq01,
The fuzzy leaves made me think Violet also. Hmmmmmmm...
Maybe if we get our Hmmmmm's right, we'll figure it out. lol!
Still pondering,

Never seen a plant like that out west so it might be regional specific. I concur with 'green'.
It sounds as though you had a lovely weekend of riding. I am glad your weather is cooperating.
That looks like Mullein. We have it all over the place here; it's very aggressive and spreads easily. It supposedly has medicinal properties although we've never tried it.
Trobairitz,
We did have a GREAT weekend of riding. I'm loving our weather right now and taking advantage of it all I can!

Canajun,
I just googled it, and it sure looks like that's what it is. I've never seen nor heard of it before.
Thanks for the clue!
Still learning,
Lady R
