Monotropa uniflora

Wikipedia • Commons • Wikibooks (horticulture) • Wikibooks (subject) • Wikispecies • Fruit and seed clock

Profile for Monotropa uniflora (Indian Pipe)

Identifying Characteristics
Habit:	Herbaceous forb
Flowers:	Single white flower, 10-15 mm long with 3-8 petals.
Foliage:	White scales close to the stem, 5-10 mm long
Stem:	White, 10-30 cm.
Growing Conditions:	Since it is not dependent on sunlight to grow, it can grow in very dark environments as in the understory of dense forest.

Similar Plants:	Orobanche uniflora
General information:	Unlike most plants, it is white and does not contain chlorophyll. Instead of generating energy from sunlight, it is parasitic, more specifically a myco-heterotroph. Its hosts are certain fungi that are mycorrhizal with trees, meaning it ultimately gets its energy from photosynthetic trees.
