Platanthera ciliaris (US native orchid)
Photographed on a recent field trip to an area about 2 hours to the north of the Orlando area. I plan to go back in another week or two, as this was the only flowering plant we found (Paul Martin Brown told us that we were a bit early for these and were lucky to have found this one):
You can find even more photos and read more about this species here:

Very nice! I love the US natives (avatar). This is native to my county as well. Let me know if you ever get any spare seed.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)
