I just came across an article at the following website: http://ncnatural.com/wildflwr/obnxious.html
This plant grows alongside poison ivy and is suggested as possible help against poison exposure. It is found in the Eastern US and Southern Appalachians.
I had never realized this tiny flower on the top of the plant existed before either. Until the day I took the photo, I had not seen it.
