Question
Hi, First, thank you so much for your time in helping to identify previous requests for me! It is so appreciated! I am excited for your opinion on this plant. I’ve never seen anything like it. This was found in a wooded area of our land about 60 feet above a large pond in Plymouth MA. Looking forward to learning your opinion! Thank you!!
Answer
Dear Shannon, you have photographed Monotropa uniflora (one-flowered ghost-pipe). This is a non-photosynthetic member of the heath family. The flower nods but it will turn upright as it goes to fruit. Best wishes.
