Gorgeous bog garden... I'm very jealous. It's first on my "to do" list once I find a more permanent living situation.

However, that's not Platanthera blephariglottis. It's Platanthera integrilabia. Note the lack of fringe. It has a much narrower range than P. blephariglottis, being found in mostly mountainous areas of the southeast.

I was having my doubts as well, but know next to nothing about these so assumed maybe it was within the range of variation for blephariglottis, just not on the showier end of that range. Got it off ebay as blephariglottis but I guess we know how that goes by now. Thanks for the ID.

I have a friend that got ciliaris off eBay that turned out to be integrilabia, too. I bet it's the same seller.

Nice looking bog Forrest! The good news is that P. integrilabia is a much rarer species and yours look great.
