I have updated my Florida native orchid blog with a few new entries:

The Florida Native Orchid Blog

and the Florida native orchid website gallery with new plant entries:

Florida Native Orchid Gallery at Florida's Native and Naturalized Orchids

Hint: look for the **NEW** under the new entries.

Great updates Prem! I have never seen a Dingy with so much green before, that is a beautiful shot. Have you been getting down to the Fakahatchee lately or are these older shots?

Nice posts, Prem.

Ronald, thanks for the compliment. Justin, the flower photo was taken two years ago at the Fak. Time has been limited lately, so I haven't been down in a while...I am hoping to make a trip in early April to find Cyrt. punctatum in flower on a plant that is not ridiculously high up in a tree like at Corkscrew.

Do you have a plant in mind? Because I'm shooting one in Big Cypess. Maybe we could collaborate.

Justin, I don't have any plant in mind, as I don't know of any lower-growing plants. I am hoping those more familiar with the area could help me find some lower-growing plants so I can capture this rare beauty up close and in the wild.

Collaboration would be most welcome!

Sounds good, let's plan on it! My friend and I have been spending a lot of time finding the rare epiphytic orchids down there. By the way, the Sacoila lanceolata should be coming up within the next 2-3 weeks. I'm going to try and find it.
