That is Rattlesnake Plantain (Goodyera pubescens), not a plantain at all but a member of the orchid family. Not a bad specimen, they are fairly rare.

I think rare is relative. I have them naturally on my property and they pop up in paths that I've created (and they weren't there when I created the path, I looked!).

It's a wonderful little plant, evergreen here in Georgia and a delight to spot during the dull days of winter. Up close the pattern on the leaves is just exquisite.

Nice picture.

Aren't you lucky to be in zone 7. During the dull days of winter we just get to look at snow.

Wow , Really a cool looking plant that Rattlesnake plantain...anyone know if it is an annual or perenial and would it be found up here near Lake Erie in Pennsylvania ???
Would love to get my hands on one of them. Has anyone ever seen them in a nursery ? I dont recall ever seeing them in the woods here ,but I dont know what time of the year they show up and how long they remain till they die back....Tom

In my area it is perennial and evergreen. Here is the distribution in PA according to the USDA Plants database.
