Jack-in-the-Pulpit
Another odd flower of Va.'s woodlands in spring is Jack-in-the-Pulpit (Arisaema triphyllum). The flower is low to the ground and the green with brown striping makes it somewhat difficult to spot. The plant's three leaves closely resemble Poison Ivy and it is considered poisonous to grazing livestock in large amounts.
