Mandarin - Yellow
Disporum languinosum
Family - Lilium - Lily
This early spring woodland wildflower is a rather odd looking inhabitant of rich
woodlands here in southeastern Indiana, mostly on wooded slopes. It will form a red
fruit later in the year.
The Yellow Mandarin resembles a close relative, the Nodding Mandarin which has creamy
white flowers. The flowers are about one inch long and hang either singly or in pairs.
