These are wild plants that needs particular environments, be sure to be able to provide it and please avoid taking them in the wild.

Here is a photo of Pyrola picta, the Picture Leaf Wintergreen. I have the arbutoid fungi it requires. It will be planted next to my Bearberry. Wild plants probably would not survive, being too distant from necessary roots.

Thanks, but I have plants and just received seeds from Weezingreens. I know it is a longshot, but I would like the ones with the fancy markings. When happy Pyrola picta frequently, and sometimes others, go leafless. DNA testing showed Pyrola aphylla is no longer a species.
