Plant Description: Pathfinder is perennial that enjoys shady moist forests. Leaves form at the base of the plant that range between triangle to heart shaped with soft, green leaves with wooly silver undersides. Each plant grows a tall stem with bracts of dozens of tiny white flowers. Commonly called "pathfinder" after walking through patches of them in a forest, the leaves will turn over showing their silvery underbelly, marking your path. This plant occasionally has an unpleasant smell to attract small flies.
