Aplectrum hyemale (Puttyroot) is a wild orchid of rich deciduous woods in the eastern U.S.
The single leaf sprouts in September, remains green througout the winter, and dies in May
just before the plant blooms.  Leaf, flowers, seedpods, and root are shown here.

Painted life size from a centipede that lived in my yard.  The orange-brown is "eco-friendly"
