This is Clintonia, which has a really gross name. It's named for Gov. Dewitt Clinton of New York, for which our county is named. It grows like a weed around Silver Lake. These blossoms turn into huge blue berries which are rumored to be poisonous. Every kid in the Adirondacks has picked one and opened it. It's full of white stuff the consistency of circus peanuts.
