Liparis loeselii (Loesel's Twayblade orchid)

Liparis loeselii (Loesel's Twayblade orchid)
Last week, while we were looking for Liparis liliifolia (Lily-leaved Twayblade orchid) in the Pisgah National Forest near Breavard, North Carolina, I stumbled across this orchid. I believe it to be rare in the southern region of the Pisgah NF; in fact, it may be the southernmost location for this species in the U.S.

I photograped it several years ago in Manitoba, Canada, but up there, the flowers were more yellow. These flowers are mint green. It was exciting to find this one -- especially when I was not even looking for it...

We also found a very tall version of a rather odd-looking fern. I have just guessed at the identification, since I am not familiar with ferns.
