Observed a number of times above 5,000 ft. Mt. Mitchell State Park (Little Canada), Western North Carolina
Found loose on the ground while trying to refind a Monk Orchid In a tree I spotted last weekend
I think this might be that same monk orchid
If so, not sure why its on the ground and why leaves are missing
Another Eulophia alta with a pseudobulb (even more pronounced than the last one?)
Seen while completing plant monitoring with Steve W in the Hole-in-the-Donut, Restoration Area 2003 in Everglades National Park. Location is accurate.
