Mayapple Blossom

Mayapple Blossom (Podophyllum peltatum)
Lost Valley Trail - Boxley, AR - May 2014

One of the early springtime wildflowers in the Ozarks, casual passers-by will only notice the patches of "umbrella plants" along the roadside and under the forest canopy. Each produces a lovely white flower under the covering foliage.
