Some Pictures From Corkscrew Swamp

That was a great trip! The white-flowered plant is Crinum americanum. The plant in the crotch of the tree, and in the photo with the red bromeliad, is Epidendrum nocturnum. I don't know what the others are. I think you photographed 3 orchids.

Good to know - we've always just called them "swamp lilies"

Thanks! I looked it up and would really like to see it in bloom. They apparently can bloom in January, so I'll have a chance another year. I'm not going to a Florida swamp in summer!!
