What=92s the difference between marsh cinquefoil (comarum palustre) and =
marsh cinquefoil (potentilla palustris)?  I googled and found most =
photos had five petals, but I did find one with six: =
http://www.arcticatlas.org/photos/pltspecies/spp_details.php?queryID=3Dco=
pa28.
Is this a variant?  Anyway, the photos I googled definitely looked the =
same (except for number of petals).  Thanks!
