Explosive fruit? Also called "touch-me-not," pale jewelweed has seed pods that explode when touched, ejecting seeds several feet in the air in less than 5 milliseconds. Credit: Mason Heberling | Carnegie Museum of Natural History

An easy way to identify Jewelweed is by pouring a bit of water and watching it become all shiny, like a JEWEL! You can use Jewelweed by crushing it into a salve for bites, burns, or even poison ivy. | U.S. Forest Service - National Forests in North Carolina | Facebook
