Mystery plant identified - edible and medicinal Saturday this picture and question were posted, "Can anyone tell me what these are? In 13 years on Clifty Creek farm I've never seen it...” Readers gave suggestions and as Monday morning dawns, we have the answer. By Miss By Donna Rieder It is Conopholis Americana, the American cancer-root, also known as bear corn. It is a parasitic plant which, when blooming, resembles a pine cone or ear of corn. The plant grows mostly from the roots of oak and beech trees (that's where I found it.) It gets the name Squawroot from its usage by Native American women to treat menstrual cramps and assist childbirth. It's edible and has many medicinal properties. Good to know!

Letter: Cut one open to see if puffball Marie Freeman suggests the mystery plant might be species of puffball mushroom. She writes: Lycoperdon pyriforme is one of only a few puffballs that grow on wood, which makes it fairly easy to identify. Other distinguishing features include the fact that its outer surface is only finely spiny, with spines that usually wear off; and the long white mycelial strings attached to its stem, which is often pinched off at the base--resulting in the pear-shaped ("pyriform") overall appearance that gives the species its name.Comments re: Mystery plant needs identification Click here to share, print, or bookmark this article. 2021-06-13 14:50:58 | Comments | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
