Agreed! Great blooms and foliage! But no, that's not a Corallorhiza. It's a Stenorrhynchos, if I'm not mistaken. Corallorhizas are saprophytes. Their leaves have been reduced to tiny bracts along the inflorescence.

There's a Stenorrynchus, a Sarcoglottis, a Stenosarcos (hybrid) and a Cyclopogon (very obscured). Like I said, it's not a good picture. Next time I post these, I'll have them separated and ID'ed clearly.
If thats Sarcoglottis sceptrodes in the forefront, post when it blooms please. Nice plants.
Dave,
It is . . . and I hope I can. I will be gone almost all of March (in Panama, should be a few orchids there), so I don't know if I'll catch it in bloom. If I can either before or after my trip I will. If I miss it, I might have some old pics of it I could post (hope that's not cheating).
