This is for 50 Monotropa uniflora Indian Pipe Forest Flower Seeds along with a packet of beneficial soil fungus for growing this plant. A shade loving plant, Indian Pipe requires a host tree to support its life cycle. This does group them in the parasitic family of plants, however they are not rampant in their growth, and don't harm the shrub or tree. They are closer to the growth habit of mushrooms growing on a tree stump. Dainty All White Plant These require a certain soil fungus that this plant lives symbiotically upon. Because it is not always the case that your garden soil will have this soil born organism I am also providing with the seeds, a small packet of soil that has been infused with it. Just sprinkle that packet down in a shady spot where you plan to grow the Indian Pipe and then sprinkle the seeds on top and cover with your normal soil. These are one of the most spectacular native plants because they are stark white against the forest soil. They seem like mushrooms but are actually plants that lack the chlorophyll pigment that makes plants green. These little beauties will certainly brighten up any shady garden spot yearly from mid to late summer. They send up the white blooming flower structure in summer just like tulips or other flowering bulbs do. Please make sure that you have read the listing carefully before you purchase the item. Plant care and or seed starting instructions will be included with purchase of seeds or plants. The shipping costs reflect added packaging and or additives to preserve item quality during shipping, USPS shipping & Delivery fees, PayPal, shipping and other handling fees associated with your purchase. International Customers please note: The Shipping option price of $3.50 is for USPS First Class International Shipping; which is the low cost option. The list says Priority international because the low cost option is not listed as of the shipping choices. I am adding the low cost option manually. Thanks for looking and have a wonderful day.
