Platanthera conspicua (Southern White fringed orchid)

These images represent some of the native plants we saw on Day 2 of my 3-day trip to the Carolina Coastal Plain. There were eight plant enthusiasts on this field trip into the Croatan National Forest in Carteret County, North Carolina. We saw a number of orchids, carnivorous plants, and other native wildflowers.
