Tall Northern Bog Orchis

Tall Northern Bog Orchis
Driving through Kootenay National Park in British Columbia we found and photographed a field of Bog Orchids. This one is the Tall Northern Bog Orchis, Platanthera huronensis, and there were growing with it white Bog Orchid, Platanthera dilatata, as well as a natural hybrid, one of the green Bog Orchids of the western USA and Canada that are very difficult to identify, in part because they hybridize and intergrade with one another.
