Jack-In-The-Pulpit

Jack-in-the-Pulpit (Indian Turnip)is found in moist shady woodlands.The flowers are hidden in the pulpit or spathe but in the fall,when the spathe has withered,the fruit is conspicuous,and egg-shaped cluster of red berries.The tuber contains starch but also has a very sharp taste due to crystals of calcium oxalate.Done in Watercolors by Merilyn Carpenter 7/21/06
