After living HERE about 5 years, we discovered this wild orchid a few
feet off the path in a tangle of weeds and brush. We cleared the area
around it and put up the usual cage to keep out the critters.

Read this and figured it was in OZ... Went to the website and the
guys just outside Chicago...
The plant picture looks more like some Pleurothallid than a tersertail
native of the upper midwest. The more I know orchids the less I know.
