There was a mowed roadside meadow following Hwy. 130 in Columbus County for a mile or so. In this meadow were dozens of Calopogon tuberosus flowers of every imaginable color from white to deep magenta. This particular flower is definitely a cross between C. tuberosus and C. pallidus with intermediate characteristics of both.
