This species is the most attractive of the three I've posted, though also very small. The nearly translucent flowers are considerably larger than some of the others. This plant was photographed in the Canadian Rockies in Berg Lake Provincial Park. More information and pictures can be found here: nativeorchidsofthepacificnorthwest.blogspot.com/2010/11/n...

This species is very tiny, often only a few inches tall and has tiny flowers. This plant was photographed on the Heliotrope Ridge Trail in the North Cascades. More information and pictures can be found on my blog at: nativeorchidsofthepacificnorthwest.blogspot.com/2010/11/h...

The three pictures I've posted are of three orchids native to the Pacific Northwest and in some case to other parts of the country and even Eurasia. They are all small and rather insignificant, but intriguing when viewed closely. This species was photographed in the North Cascades in Washington.

My wife took this photo while we were hiking in the area of Mount Rainier. The little stream ran along the trail for quite a ways and she managed beautifully, I think, to capture the lush greenness of the area in which we were hiking, as well as the early morning light. ronaldhanko-orchidhunter.blogspot.com/2012/08/near-greenw...
