Spotted MandarinSpotted
Mandarin grows in both the Ridge and Valley and Cumberland Plateau
provinces, but is never found in very large numbers in any location due
to its requirement for mature forests. The plant is easily
confused with its more common cousin, Yellow Mandarin, except in late
spring when the purple dotted petals give away Spotted Mandarin’s
identity. Both mandarins can be distinguished from the related
bellworts by the mandarins’ rough leaves, much different from the
smooth, thin leaves of the bellworts.
