Pyrola asarifolia, commonly known as Bog Wintergreen, Liverleaf Wintergreen or Pink Wintergreen, is a plant species of the genus Pyrola native to western North America. It is found primarily on forest margins at mid latitude in the Pacific Northwest and northern California. It is so named simply because its leaves maintain their green color through winter.
This Pyrola seems to key possibly to P. chlorantha, given the minimal white vienation. It appears distinct from P. picta growing in the vicinty, but does not have a peltate stigma consistent with P. minor. I did not collect this specimen so I have defaulted to P. picta.
