COSEWIC assessment and status report on the Spotted Wintergreen Chimaphila maculata in Canada / Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada.: CW69-14/84-2017E-PDF
"Spotted Wintergreen (Chimaphila maculata) is a small, low-growing, evergreen perennial that is woody at the base and spreads by rhizomes to form colonies. Each stem consists of a whorl of thick, blue-green, toothed leaves with a white stripe along the mid-rib and white areas extending from the mid-rib. Topping the whorl of leaves is a stalk supporting one to five nodding white or pinkish flowers. In a given year, only some of the stems in a subpopulation produce flowers. The rounded seed capsules become erect after flowering, and contain numerous tiny seeds"--Wildlife Species Description and Significance, p. iv.
