Found in the Deep River bottom next to the Spotted Touch-me-not.
The name comes from the resemblance of the blossom to the head of a turtle. Other common names, based on other resemblances, include snakehead, codhead and fishmouth.
A member of the figwort family, it is related to toadflax, and you can see the family similarity in the shape of the blossoms.
