| Not sure. My first thought was a Trillium.

| A wild guess, as I am not familiar with these plants... Goodyera? |

| Hi Alta. If that's a Goodyera, I am yet to find one like that in my part of the world;-)

| Can you find any flowers or fruit so show?
That wouldn't be some kind of funny Gaultheria would it? |

| I think growin has it. I was thinking of Allegheny spurge myself (didn't know it was Pachysandra procumbens).

| The margins on the leaves and the rosette of Jpofsunya's plant don't match Pachysandra procumbens. |

| Hi All,
There are some unusual plants that grow in my zone (out of ordinary climate). These were literally the only two of these growing in a couple of square miles. I will try to take some more photos, if helpful. I took a couple of the underside of the plant but they came out very blurry...Here they are just the same...

| I thought it was a trillium, too, but from what I can quickly browse, it looks like most markings on trilliums take more of a 'splash' look, as opposed to these lighter veined leaves.
Boy, ya got me! |

| Hey Sheryl and hope all is well with you. I at first thought it was a Trillium as well but I agree with what you wrote above concerning those.
I'm Still stumped too;-) |

| Hi Rachel! Hope your corner of the world is peaceful!
I'm still looking - found some NY wildflower sites, will see...
Okay, this didn't help at all, but might be nice for someone to use... http://www.discoverlife.org/mp/20q?guide=Wildflowers&cl=US/I...

| This plant stumps me too - all trillium only have four leaves. Epigea doesn't have that kind of variegation on the veins. I checked the rare New York Plants but nothing - either it's a orchid or a boreal species.
Edit: Sorry it have only three leaves.

| Maybe a Pyrola, Wintergreen. Pyrola americana has similar leaf patterns. |

| Really looks like Pyrola americana! http://www.ct-botanical-society.org/galleries/pyrolaamer.htm...
I had a suspection after jpofsunya said there were unusual climate conditions - usually constant with either a microclimate or soil conditons. Most likely it is farther south than its normal range.

i really don't know but maybe the pyrola americana? the leaf-shape doesnt look like a match on the link you posted malus, but this photo of the same plant looks closer -> http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://farm3.static.f...
