  • The tiny western heart-leaved twayblade (Neottia cordata var. nephrophylla) growing beside an alpine lake in Stevens Pass, Washington. I found this one by accident as I was lying on the ground photographing another  orchid when I noticed this one in full flower between my elbows as I was shooting!

  • The giant helleborine orchid (Epipactis gigantea), also commonly known as the stream orchid and even chatterbox is found sporadically throughout the western half of the United States, with a northerly range just barely reaching into Southern British Columbia. It is also the only helleborine native to North America.  Nearly always found in wetlands in a highly variable range of habitats from conifer forests to sagebrush deserts, it also seems to tolerate a wide range of soils. These were found just south the Dry Falls area of Washington's Grant County in multiple places in the Sun Lakes, just at the edge of the water. On this day more than five thousand orchids were in bloom on a scorching hot spring day, most of them (but not all) sheltered by cottonwoods.

  • The delicate and tiny southern twayblade orchid in full bloom in Goethe State Forest. The reddish brown coloration of this winter bloomer makes an already small terrestrial orchid hard to find among the fallen leaves.

  • A green southern twayblade with another new plant just sprouting in Levy County, Florida.
