They are actually the spadix or female ovary of the flower, similar to Jack-in-the-Pulpit. Leaves are velvety dark bluish green, pointed ovals, and shed water. Seeds and rhizomes are starchy and edible. It prefers growing along the edges of acid waters in consistently wet, peaty soils in full sun, but will tolerate shade.
