Mayapple

I see this on the edge of the woods. It looks so pretty.

Mayapple: Podophyllum: Mayapples are woodland plants, typically growing in colonies derived from a single root. The flowers are white, yellow or red. All the parts of the plant, excepting the fruit, are poisonous. Even the fruit, though not dangerously poisonous, can cause unpleasant indigestion. A drug that is made from this is used to treat the plantar warts. They are also grown as ornamental plants for their attractive foliage and flowers.

Though the common name is mayapple, it is the flower that appears in early May, not the "apple". The fruit or "apple" is produced early summer and ripens later in summer.
