Chimaphila maculata (L.) Pursh9 of 22
July 15, Blue Hills Reservation, Milton
striped pipsissewa, spotted wintergreen
Flowers are insect pollinated, though if this does not happen,
they go for self-pollination. Fruit is a dry capsule full of tiny
seed. The embryo is not differentiated and consists of just a few cells. You
can see a last year's capsule here.
