"Spotted Wintergreen (Chimaphila maculata) is a low, evergreen herb or half-shrub that spreads by creeping rhizomes to form sparse patches. Each stem is 10-25 cm high and consists of a whorl of thick, evergreen, toothed leaves that have a variegated upper surface with white mainly along the mid-rib and larger veins. Topping the whorl of leaves is a stalk supporting one to five nodding flowers with white or pinkish reflexed petals. Only some of the stems in a population produce flowers. The seed capsules become erect after flowering"--Description, p. iv.
