Organism Post

(possibly) "Portulaca oleracea"

(possibly) "pigweed" or "little hogweed"

Has a smooth red stem and leaves protruding from the ends of the stem.
Grows with roots clumped in areas. Grows over dirt, stems going horizontally to the ground, connecting and crossing over creating a strong and difficult to break hold on dirt.

Unidentified plant roots. Roots are used for taking up water and nutrients for plants to grow and use photosynthesis.
