St bruno ghost plant DSC 4872 edited
From earlier in the year. These are ghost plants, (or ghost pipes, Indian pipes or corpse plants; Monotropa uniflora). They are parasitic on fungi that live in symbiotic relationship with trees, (often beech trees), and come above ground only briefly to flower. Lacking chlorophyll, they are completely white.
