Question
I found this along the Peshtigho River just below Johnson Falls Dam.
Answer
Dear Mehackett, good afternoon. You have photographed a species of Goodyear, and most likely Goodyera pubescens (downy rattlesnake-plantain), a native member of the orchid family. This species is infrequently found in a variety of mesic to dry-mesic forests, often associated with oak. The leaves of the different species have varying degrees of white patterns upon them. Beautiful plant.
