From the artist:

One of the strangest-looking flowers in southeastern Wyoming is the elephanthead lousewort (or just elephanthead). This flower can be found growing during the summer in wet areas of the Snowies, many times near marsh marigolds. And it gets stranger still – the elephanthead is partially parasitic, projecting haustoria (a slender root projection) that penetrate the root tissues of its host, absorbing nutrients from it.
