    Attached below a plant I found on a cobblestone beach here in rural Newfoundland. I cannot I.D 100% and would like confirmation from others! I believe it to be Watercress (Nasturtium microphyllm boenn)?

    A species of scurvygrass Cochlearia.

    Watercress (which is closely related) differs in having longer, narrower seed pods.
