These pale plants are known as Indian Pipes. They contain no chlorophyll,
obtaining their energy in much the same manner as mushrooms and
fungus. Hence their white colour (chlorophyll is what makes plants
green).
Indian Pipes are found in deep forests, where there are reduced
light conditions.

These seem to prefer deeper woods, but where there is some light.
