Found this growing on a tree in Kentucky. Any idea what it is? I know nothing at all about flowers. I'm not even sure if it's an orchid. Apologies for the low quality pic, it was taken back in 2006 with an old flip-phone.

Do you know where the tree was? It is quite interesting.

Probably an eastern redbud (Cercis canadensis). Those are widespread in the eastern US.

the "forest pansy" hybrid it flowered anyway from the broken off limb. DNA had a job to do.

I am not going to tell you what your plant is.
