White colicroot boasts an elegant, tall spike-like raceme, reaching lengths between 6 to 18 inches (15-46 cm). Adorning this, individual bell-shaped flowers, each less than 1/2 inch long, display distinct physical characteristics with six creamy white tepals. These tepals, exhibiting a gentle curvature at their tips, coalesce to form a delicate tubular figure, the tips just parting – an artful presentation atop the slender stalk.
