'''Large-flowered bellwort''' (''Uvularia grandiflora'') is a plant in the family [[Colchicaceae]], native to eastern North America. It blooms in May, producing large yellow flowers. The top parts of the plant tend to bend downward due to the weight of the leaves and flowers. The light green stems are round, [[glabrous]], and [[glaucous]] and the leaves are [[perfoliate]] since the stem appears to come through the leaves at the base. Large flowered bellwort are different from ''[[Uvularia sessilifolia]]'' in that the leaves of ''U. sessilifolia'' [[Sessility (botany)|grow from the stem]] and its flowers are smaller. ''U. grandiflora'' are also different from ''[[Uvularia perfoliata]],'' which occurs in Central [[North America]]. ''U. perfoliata'' has similar large [[perfoliate]] leaves like the grandiflora, but the flowers have orange-coloured bumps on the petals. [[Bumblebee]]s, [[Mason bee]]s, [[Halictid bee]]s, and [[Andrenid bee]]s feed from the nectar and collect pollen from the flowers. [[Deer]] love to eat these plants. In fall three capsuled ovaries can be observed on some individuals. The seeds have attached food bodies ([[elaiosome]]) making it attractive to [[ant]]s for the redistribution of the seeds. Its native range extends from the [[Appalachian mountains]] west to [[the Dakotas]], north to [[Manitoba]] and [[Quebec]], and south to [[Louisiana]] and [[Georgia (U.S. state)|Georgia]].<ref>http://plants.usda.gov/java/profile?symbol=UVGR</ref> {{Inc| Uvularia grandiflora, Smith.
