Wildflower: Squawroot (Conopholis americana)



2016-04-19 - Great Smoky Mountains National Park - Photo by Pen. According to the National Park Service, "Sqauwroot resembles an ear of corn coming out of the leaf-litter. It is a brown flower because there is no chlorophyll in it. Squawroot is actually a parasite, growing on oak roots. Black bears are known to feed on squawroot. It is frequently seen in the lower elevations of the park." According to Wikipedia, Squawroot is common in all states east of the Mississippi.

BOWLING GREEN, KY (Mon 18 Apr 2016) - Many think it's the performance on the course that matters, but for Kim Goodin the impact she makes on her student-athletes overshadows any on-the-field success for Lady Tiger Golf.
