Question
Wondering if someone could identify this plant found in Green Mountains in southern VT. It was a fairly wet woods with moss and spruce trees. Saw a lesser fringed orchis in a really damp area nearby. Thanks
Answer
Dear c.chalmers, I do not know what you have photographed. Without flowers or fruits, this one is a mystery. It does look to me much like a species of Trillium that is producing a single leaf (this happens from time to time and the leaf morphology is very similar to what you have photographed). If you are able to get additional images, feel free to post them or send them to ahaines[at]newenglandwild.org .
