Oregon Hikers

We saw these in shaded areas around Wahtum Lake and upper Herman Creek. In the picture it looks like it has 4 leaves, but each plant had just two leaves, a single thin stem, and a single dark blue berry on the end of the stem.

We had no memory of seeing these before, but if it wasn't for the blue berry we wouldn't have paid attention to the small ground cover leaves. The dark blue color was really pretty.

Queen's cup, a.k.a bead lily (Clintonia uniflora).

(I correctly guessed it based on the subject of the thread, without even seeing the pictures. )

can you eat it?

Okay, I think I'll pass, at least it doesn't sound like they're poisonous

Here's another pic of a blue bead lily from around Bald Mountain.
