Cranefly Orchid

Add to Cart

I've encountered these unusual terrestrial orchids in many places along the Apalachicola River. Local terrain and locations include heavily wooded hills, steep ravines, and near creeks cutting through limestone or packed clay. American beech and magnolia trees are always in abundance, as well as the ever-present poison ivy.
