Description

Mayapple, a native woodland plant, is found across most eastern North America and in the southern region near Texas

 Mayapple, also called podophyllum peltatum, is a species in the barberry family. This perennial generally grows in colovies that originate from a single root. Typical areas where Mayapple plants grow wild are open forests, riverbanks, shady fields, and roadsides. 

 Native Americans use this plant for medicinal purposes, and podophyllotoxin is a common ingredient in prescription drugs. However, the plant in its natural form is highly toxic if swallowed by humans. 

 The stem sands in an upright position and grows from a shallow, branched underground rhizome. The rhizome has thick dark tubers connected by fleshy fibers, which spread roots allowing the bud to produce a shoot.

 The leaves create an umbrella-like environment that makes a lush green landscape. The plant's stem elongates during the spring, and the leaves remain furled. Typically, up to two leaves grow on the stem. When Mayapple grows wild, it creates a beautiful dense colony. 

 Mayapple is a native spring wildflower that emerges during the early spring season then goes dormant in mid-summer

It goes dormant as the environmental conditions get sunny. 

 The axil of the two leaves produces solitary white flowers. The flower measures 2" to 3" inches wide and features 6 to 9 waxy petals and a light green-colored sepal. The short-lived flowers are found hidden by the umbrella-like leaves. They produce a light, pleasant fragrance that attracts bumblebees. 

 Mayapple looks lush and plentiful in the garden and adds texture and greenery.
