On the high mountains of Pensylvania, in shady beech- 
woods, among rotten wood and rich vegetable mould. 
7 1 . June — Sept. v. v. This singular species differs 
from all the rest, in producing , its flowers as it were 
under ground, as they always are covered with rotten 
wood or leaves ; they are of a chocolate brown, very 
small j the seed-vessel buries itself still deeper in the 
ground, and is large in proportion to the plant. The 
inhabitants know it by the name of Heal-all, being 
used by them in curing all kinds of wounds or sores.
