Here's some of the unique plant, lizard's tail (Saururus cernuus), in the small pond installed near the Clegg Garden entrance. Lizard's tail is a native Indiana plant that is sometimes seen wild along streams but it has been planted in this location.
The spike that gives lizard's tail its name is past flowering and is covered with tiny green fruits. Photo taken August 6, 2015.
Lizard's tail is the only native Indiana member of the plant family Saururaceae.
