Asarabaca

Asarabaca (Asarum) - Curious little plants resembling Cyclamens in their leaves, but of little value except as curiosities. A. canadense is the Canadian Snakeroot, which bears in spring curious brownish-purple flowers, the roots being strongly aromatic, like Ginger. A. virginicum is the Heart Snakeroot, its leaves thick and leathery, with the upper surface mottled with white. A. caudatum is from Oregon, and much like the other in habit, but the divisions of the flower have long tail-like appendages. A. europaeum is the Asarabacca, the flowers greenish, about 1/2 inch long, and close to the ground.
