Grass Pink Orchid: Wells Reserve at Laudholm Farms, Wells, Maine, USA \u2014 The Tuberous Grass Pink Orchid is, according to my bit of morning research, among the most wide spread of its genus\u2026occurring in both wet bogs and moist prairies across most of south east Canada and the north eastern US. I found these in the tiny remnant bog that is preserved at the Wells Estuarine Research Reserve at Laudholm Farms here in Wells. Both Grass Pink and Rose Pagonia grow there\u2026though the Rose Pagonia seems to be fewer and fewer year to year. The Grass Pink is doing well\u2026and there are many blooms this season. It is a beautiful flower\u2026only about 2 inches across, but growing in clusters on single stems above the moss. As you see, the orchid hangs \u201cupside down\u201d due to the twist in the stem. Nikon B700, telephoto macro at 1440mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Polarr and Apple Photos. <\/p>\n
