Just for somthing to do try to find out what this is.  I don't know either......yet.

It's a small plant about 8"-10" high. The flower is about the size of a quarter.  Picture taken today in NE Florida on the side of a dirt road and on the edge of a Hardwood swamp at about 9 ft above sea level.  The ground is 2" of sand on top of blue gumbo clay. :-/

Now I say, with almost certainty.( we have some in our garden but it has never flowered)

Common or perhaps western St.-John's-wort

Hypericum perforatum
Family: St.-John's-wort

Yep, Me too.
I figured it must be common but it sure looks like the picture of western, doesn't it?

I love that site you used  Enature.com
