Okay, I've just uploaded the pictures I got from the FNP in an album. How do I load them into the flower photo section?
Also, can anybody help identify this orb? I find these all the time in the woods. They dry a dull brown color.

Looks like a gall. Is it an insect that burrowed into the plant and cause it to do that?

Check out this persons blog for more information on the orb. I had seen these before myself and thought they were just little crab apples or something.

Also watch goldenrod stalks for insect gauls. Last year a friend and I went looking for these, and after maybe checking a thousand or so stalks we found one. Cut it open and there was the little worm like larvae.
