We have these in Maine too. I’ve always known them as indian pipeweed, although I suspect they aren’t called that anymore as it’s a bit culturally insensitive.



Yeah, I first learned of them under the name Indian Pipe, and a half hour later saw the Ghost Pipe alternative, so ran with that for that very reason. It’s also a more descriptive name, given how they look.
