Goodyera pubescens
In situ, Schuylkill county PA. About a 5 minute walk from home!

That is seriously beautiful foliage, lucky you having that on your doorstep- with luck you might get them in your garden too.

The difference between the two clumps is greater than the pics show. The one is really white!

As Jcec1 said, beautiful foliage. Have you ever been able to get a photo of them in bloom?

I just moved into the area, and this year's bloom was long past. I did find a few seed pods which I scattered mostly around the parent plants. I did keep it in my hand for quite a while, tapping it as I walked.

After I have my first dinner of fresh caught brook trout, find my first Cypripedium acaule and timber rattlesnake, I'll have nothing left to argue against you with!

Two years ago, outdoors in the woods near my house in central Virginia USA, I made a bed of yellow-poplar wood chips, marketed as playground mulch, in an attempt to start an oyster mushroom colony. I didn't get any oysters, but I now have about 30 G. pubescens seedlings growing there, clearly descended from older plants nearby. I plan to try that again, wherever I can find any of the several native orchids that grow here.
