    Anyone know what the flower(?) is in the photograph by Machel Spence?

      One of its common names is Ghost Pipe, the latin name is Monotropa uniflora (I had to look that part up). It’s fun when you find a clump of them while hiking.

        Thank you!

      Bonus fact: Ghost Pipe is white because it doesn’t photosynthesize. It gets energy and nutrients by mushrooms moving it from tree roots.

Sorry, comment time is over.
