Pterospora andromedea, commonly known as pinedrops, is a holomycotrophic perennial plant in the family Ericaceae. It is native to North America and typically found in temperate climates, often in coniferous forests. This plant is unique in that it relies entirely on a symbiotic relationship with mycorrhizal fungi for its nutrients, making it a fascinating example of plant-fungi interactions.
Pterospora andromedea requires indirect bright light and moderate temperatures to thrive. It prefers environments with high humidity and should be kept in evenly moist soil. Due to its unique nutritional requirements, it is best suited for outdoor growth in its native habitat.
