This wildflower grows at woodland edge but in shade. It is the only plant of its kind in the area as far as I've seen, and if I don't see it in bloom I don't know where it is (I look for it every year and sometimes I miss it)!

My guide book says this grows in moist soil, which must be why there is only one as this area is known for sandy soil.
