Green Bog Orchid

We found this orchid, also known as the Green Bog Orchid, growing along Highway 5 in British Columbia, Highway 1 in Alberta and BC, along the trial in Mount Robson Provincial Park in every wet and boggy spot. The variation in plants was amazing, some very slender and short, others tall and very robust. The first photo shows the spike, the second a close-up of the flowers.
