Wildflowers of Ainsworth: Jack-in-the-Pulpit

Jack-in-the-Pulpit

I found these in the woods north of the gravel road that runs beside Big Maple Lake. (By the way, I haven't been distinguishing between Deep River County Park and Big Maple Lake Park and I don't intend to start. It's all Deep River County Park to me.)

Jack-in-the-Pulpit starts life as a male, and when it's grown strong enough, it becomes female. Or so the wildflower experts tell me.
