An Orchid for Upupaepops
A while ago, I found Epipactis helleborine on the Red Trail. It's not native, but, hey, it's still an orchid! The ones on that trail died, for some reason, but I had figured out that was the "weed" that I had been pulling out of my shade garden for a number of years, and I let some grow. I have been waiting impatiently for them to bloom ever since. They finally have!

That's a real nice "weed"!
Unusual, don't think I've ever seen it in this area. You should join one of the wild flower clubs, I'll bet you would enjoy it.
