brilliantbotany: This the Indian Pipe plant, an eerie-looking plant, in my opinion. Monotropa uniflora is a heterotroph. That means that it doesn’t photosynthesize. Instead, it’s a parasitic plant that relies on mycorrhizal fungi for its nutrients.Why is it white? No chlorophyll, no green.It’s also known as the Ghost Plant, and the Corpse Plant.
