Habenaria repens Male
Default Habenaria repens

Habenaria repens - blooming again with much stronger new growth and this time many buds. Florida native bog orchid, also called spider orchid but blooms remind me more some aliens.

Hi Tommy, the flower does look like an alien or a large tarantula spider. I wonder if spiders are this plant's pollinator? You have another lovely plant.
