Rocky Mountain National Park there ain't nothing else like you
One of my favorites that I call my forest herb.
Chimaphila maculata is an evergreen Shrub growing to 0.3 m (1ft) by 0.5 m (1ft 8in) at a slow rate.
Other names are Spotted Wintergreen and Pipsissewa.
Native to Eastern N. America - Illinois to Michigan and Ontario, south to Texas and Georgia.
The plant is analgesic, antibacterial, astringent, diaphoretic, diuretic, febrifuge, rubefacient, stimulant and tonic. The plant has an antiseptic influence on the urinary system and is sometimes used in the treatment of cystitis. An infusion of the plant has been drunk in the treatment of rheumatism and colds. A poultice of the root has been used to treat pain whilst the plant has also been used as a wash on ulcers, scrofula and cancers. All parts of the plant can be used, though only the leaves are officinal. The plant is loaded with the biologically active compounds arbutin, sitosterol and ursolic acid.

Landscape Language
Calyx (noun) – the outermost whorl or covering of a flower The outermost covering of a flower is called a calyx. When the flower blooms, the calyx can break apart into petal-like structures called sepals. The structure of the calyx is one of the ways different wildflower species can be identified.
Vine maple (Acer circinatum) blooms have a very noticeable calyx. The actual vine maple flower is white, but the sepals are purple-red and flare out around the flower.
Pipsissewa (Chimaphila umbellata) flowers have 5 sepals in a star-like shape on the back of the flower.
In some flowers, like tiger lilies (Lilium columbianum), the calyx is indistinguishable from the outermost petals and so instead of sepals they are called “tepals”.
