I have noticed that a staggering number of my ground orchids are pollenated and going to seed.
I would estimate that 50 % of the plants have at least one pollenated flower and that of those plants, most have more than one pollenated..pics below.
now this is the kind of pollination rate i expect from any plant that is around it's natural pollenators but it seemed crazy high for an orchid....is it possible they are self sexing?
