The spathes, which resemble hoods on a jacket are upright with a nodding tip which points to the lovely interior which is usually striped purple-black or more rarely, green. The flowers are fleeting, but exceptionally beautiful with a sultry, mysterious appeal. They are followed by clusters of showy red berries in fall. Like clockwork every year for about 10 years now, jack-in-the-pulpit has emerged in the forest here on the second day of our Trillium Festival. We have often walked through the forest after the event to find that visitors and hikers have flagged the emerging plants so no-one will step on them. Will multiply rapidly in rich, moist soil and part to deep shade.
