Jack in the Pulpit - wild flower Great Smoky Mountains

One of my favorite late spring wildflowers. This one is in a very wet shaded environment of a small mountain stream. Once the flower falls off the three big leaves can look like Poison Ivy. These flowers are not easy to find in the wild environment.
