I walked in the woods this morning. It's been a banner year for fungus - everywhere you see big and little mushrooms growing where ever they can get ahold. This find was the coolest; thought I would never see this in our woods - Indian Pipes! I've seen them called 'ghosts of tulips past' - I love that description, the scientific name is Monotropa uniflora.

Aren't they lovely...they abound in our woods as well.
little phantom phungi! :) how lovely + cool.
Love the ghosts of tulips past name---I need to take a walk up the hills and see if we have any
I don't think I've ever seen these
Those are beautiful. I've seen them at least once, either in WI or MN.
