Uvularia grandiflora

large merrybells, large flowered bellwort

Flower stems emerge in the early spring and begin growing straight upward, beginning to nod over like a shepherd's crook as the stems elongate and mature. The "grand" flower finally unfurls in pale to bright yellow, hanging elegantly from the tip.
