Description (text by Roger Tory Peterson)
"Like a small calla lily this white flower shines against the dark green of its smooth leaves. At the edges of pools in cold bogs the blossoms are at their best in June. Later, usually in August, the berries, rather like those of the Jack-in-the-pulpit, turn bright red."
