Summary

[edit]
Description Meadows throughout the park are lush with a variety of plants and wildflowers. One plant that stands out for its large, ribbed leaves is Corn Lily (Veratrum viride), also known as False Hellebore. These plants provide interesting texture to any meadow, growing to be 2.5-6.5 feet (0.7-2m) tall, with star-shaped, pale-green flowers clustered on drooping, branched stalks. They are also extremely poisonous. Deer, for example, will not eat this plant, except for in the fall when the leaves turn brown and loose their toxicity. Meadow plants including distinctive, large-leaved Corn Lilies, fill the meadows around Owyhigh Lakes, beneath Governors Ridge. Photo taken June 22, 2015. NPS/Carolyn Loren Photo
