Native Orchids of the Pacific Northwest and the Canadian Rockies: Heart-leaved Twayblade (Listera cordata)

I can more easily see the difference between this and the other two.

I agree about it looking like a cloud of insects, that's what the green form made me think of straight away.

I'm inclined to agree with you about the red form being slightly more apealing, but I love the look of both of them.

Thanks, Tindo and Rosie.

I like the lip on these. Almost wouldn't know it an orchid.

Once again you remind me how under appreciated our natives are.

Cheers.

Thanks for taking the time to look and comment, Jim.
