Veratrilla

Veratrilla is a perennial herb distinguished by its robust, upright stems and lush, ovate leaves which thrive in damp, shady environments. Clusters of small, delicate flowers, typically white or pale green, emerge in spring, attracting various pollinators. This plant has adapted to cooler climates, often found in mountainous regions where it forms dense, ground-covering mats that help protect soil from erosion.
