Ghost Pipe or Indian Pipe (Montropa uniflora) is a myco-heterotrophic wildflower that parasitizes mycorhizal fungus to get its food rather than photosynthesizing.

These are common where I live and I see them from summer into early fall. The pink hue is visible on some of the plants when they first emerge and later changes to white.
