I went camping over the summer, and I found this plant/weed next to a
lake close by to where I was staying. I never seen this before, it
intrigued me so I took a picture of it...I was wondering if any one
here could tell me what it's called. Thanks for your help

I hope this image code works, if not I'll supply a link:

It's a Calla or water arum.

Calamus?

But that's just a guess. :-)
The roots have medicinal properties.
