Frog Orchid

Frog Orchid
Also known as the Long-bracted Green Orchis, Coeloglossum viride var. virescens is found around the world in northern regions. This example was photographed along the Maligne Lake Road in Jasper National Park where it is very common. It is listed for our state, the state of Washington, but there is no one who seems to know where it might be found.

I would have thought that this was a run-of-the-mill weed and I would never have realized that it was a orchid. I am amazed at the variety. Thanks for the education.
