In Pennsylvania, it is listed as a species of special concern.
Clintonia umbellulata is a species of flowering plant in the lily family Liliaceae, commonly known as white clintonia or speckled wood-lily. It is a perennial herbaceous plant with dark green leaves and a single terminal umbel of white or greenish white flowers. The plant is found in hardwood forests in the Appalachian Mountains in the eastern United States, from New York to Georgia. It is often confused with the similar species Clintonia borealis, but can be distinguished by its taller height, larger leaves, and black berries. C. umbellulata is listed as globally secure, but is considered rare and imperiled in some states.
