  1. Oh wow, you managed to find a nice cluster in great condition. Well done! Can you please also set the country? Posted 8 years ago
  2. I think those are called Indian Pipe as their common name. They are a flower but often confused as a mushroom. What makes this specific plant unique is that it is a flower but does not consist of chlorophyll. That is a great shot, these are actually some of my favorite flowers. Posted 8 years ago

"Monotropa uniflora" is an herbaceous perennial plant native to temperate regions of Asia, North America and northern South America, but with large gaps between areas. The plant is sometimes completely waxy white, but often has black flecks or pale pink coloration. Rare variants may have a deep red color.
