Indian Ghost Pipe Flower

We do not sell Live plants We only sell freshly harvested seeds from small time growers, hobbyists and collectors. Listing is for 50+ Spores<p> Spoers are powdery and come mixed in a beneficial soil fungi powder needed for growing this plant. Introducing the ethereal Ghost Pipe Flower, scientifically known as Monotropa Uniflora, a captivating and enigmatic perennial wildflower that exudes an otherworldly allure. Standing at a delicate height of 10 to 30 centimeters, this plant is an epitome of translucent, ghostly white beauty, often adorned with faint pale pinkish tones and distinctive black flecks scattered across its entire form. You may also need a host tree, such as a beech or pine, which the fungi can form a symbiotic relationship with. This might sound complex, but it's a remarkable demonstration of the interconnectedness of nature and a fantastic way to bring a piece of the woodland ecosystem into your own garden. True to its Latin epithet, "uniflora," this exquisite flower bears a single pendant bloom, initially pointing downward before gracefully spreading almost perpendicular to its stem. Its scale-like leaves, adorned with black specks, accompany the striking flower stalk, creating an alluring contrast against its spectral hue. As the flower matures, it transforms from a drooping stance to an upright position, eventually revealing a capsule fruit. Upon ripening, the capsule gracefully disperses seeds through slits that unfurl from the tip to the base, ensuring its persistent presence even after seed release. This elusive wildflower thrives in mature, moist, and shaded forests, gracing a wide geographic range from Maine to California and from Florida to Alaska. While it mesmerizes with its understated elegance, encountering the elusive Ghost Pipe Flower in the wild is a rare and cherished experience. Blooming from early summer to early autumn, its elusive nature and haunting beauty make it an enchanting spectacle for those fortunate enough to witness its delicate presence in the mystical realms of shaded woodlands.
