Description
This is a small portion of an inflorescence or cluster of the Filipendula
There can be as many as a thousand tiny flowers in the cluster
Each flower can have up to 15 pistils
From afar this gives the cluster the look of pink mist
It's considered an endangered or threatened species in several states.
It's numbers are dwindling because it can't self pollinate
Filipendula is also known as Meadowsweet and Queen of the Prairie
