Illinois Valley News, Cave Junction, Ore. Wednesday, July 2, 2014 Page A-9 Winding Trails: by al hobart thursday, July 2, 1964 – Illinois Valley News, Cave Junction, ore Saprophytes – Indian Pipe, Pinesap, Sugar-stick Some of our oddest, prettiest, and most interesting wildplants are to be found among the saprophytes (that get their nourishment from decayed or decaying plant matter) and parasites (those that pilfer their food, or most of it, from living plants). One of the most interesting and attractive of the sapro- phytes is the Indian pipe, or ghost flower. After several years of searching I found a number of these plants down among the redwoods on Van Deventer’s place north of Crescent City. The best time to find them is at the beginning of the season, in early June, because other searchers (the deer) are always on the lookout for them, and when they find them it’s good-bye little Indian pipes. They spring up (the Indian pipes) widely scat- tered through the thick duff of the perpetual shade of the giant redwoods, to a height of usually five or six inches, sometimes twice this high. They are pure white, in some localities with a pinkish tint, and are clothed with scale-like leaves. Each plant bears a single large flower up to an inch long, surrounded by scaly bracts and, when young, conspicuously nodding. The flower parts aren’t obvious as in ordinary flowers and vary somewhat in number. There are two to four sepals, five or six petals, and twice as many stamens as petals. Through its thick mass of roots the plant extracts the food necessary to its growth from the rotting forest duff. As pretty and appealing as the growing young Indian pipe is, its beauty quickly fades after being picked. From a strik- ing waxy white it soon becomes inky black. The contrast is so unbelievable that I hesitate to explain that my coal-black speci- men was once snowy white. The Pinesap, when young, is somewhat similar in ap- pearance and habit of growth to the Indian pipe, except that it is yellow instead of white. Like the Indian pipe, it is a fleshy, scaly saprophyte. But it has a short raceme of several smaller flowers than the Indian pipe, the cluster nodding prettily before maturity. The flowers have three sepals and five petals, but no stamens. The plant grows to about the same height as the Indian pipe but, unlike the ghostly flower, which is perfectly smooth, the pinesap is covered with fine hairs. The pinesap is rare in our area, but several nice specimens were found near Waldo. I was lucky enough to get to exam- ine and photograph them before others discovered them and thoughtlessly dug them all up – to be admired for a few hours and then discarded, denying reproduction to this oddly attrac- tive and scarce little wildie. Probably the most eye-catching, if not the most beautiful, if you’re fortunate enough to run across one, is the improb- able sugar-stick. It reminds you of a stick of peppermint candy with the vertical red and white stripes that completely cover the plant’s erect thickish stem. It grows to a height of a foot or more, has numerous scale-like thickish leaves, most of these on the lower part of the stem. There are many flowers in a long slender raceme, each with five sepals and ten stamens, but no petals. When young and only five of six inches high, before the flowers have opened out, the brilliant red and white stripes of this woodland phenomenon when seen in the cool, moist forest shade where it grows, is the most striking. Like the Indian pipe and pinesap, the sugar-stick is a saprophyte. The three plants described, along with other saprophytes and parasites of this group, belong to the Indian pipe family, al- though some authors of western wildplant manuals place them in the wintergreen family. In older books you’ll find them in- cluded in the heath family. As in most branches of knowledge we find confusion in the scientific classification of wildplant species, but time, and the international congress on plant names will straighten the thing all out for us – we hope.
