coral root
Coral root is a type of non-photosynthetic, orchid plant which relies on mycorrhizal fungi for its nutrition. Named for the coral-like shape of its roots, this plant is typically found in rich, moist, deciduous forests. The term "coral root" might refer to any species within the genus Corallorhiza, with several species known across North America, Asia, and Europe. The plant is parasitic, receiving sustenance not through photosynthesis but by extracting nutrients from the mycelium of fungi in the soil.
