between cobblestones


I think of it as chamomile but have no idea what it really is. I've seen it growing in various places around the park, looking like an aquatic plant shyly masquerading as a terrestrial one. Here it's mixed in with the heart-shaped pods of Sherherd's Purse.

It's pineapple weed, Matricaria discoidea.
I should have this in my atlas, but somehow have missed good photo ops:
