A perfect-looking specimen of Indian Pipe. I learned this Summer that Indian Pipe
is edible and if you get it early, the taste is more mild. Indian Pipe has a folk
use as an analgesic. Just be sure to that it is the white, single-flower
Monotropa uniflora and do not confused it with one with multiple colored
flowers, Pinesap (Monotropa hypopitys).
