It's rather difficult to make a photogenic photo of these small, rare, red stems, but I did want a record of what a whole plant looks like, especially after posting the extremely enlarged photo below a few days ago. A friend came across a little cluster of these small, brilliant red stems on a walk in the forest. We weren't sure what they were at first, but then we came across another cluster that had several teeny flowers open. What a thrill to realize that these tiny, wild Orchids were the Spotted Coralroot. Thanks for finding these, David! The stems above were maybe 4"-6" tall, so perhaps you can imagine how tiny an individual flower is. Seen on someone's acreage west of Millarville (south of Calgary) the other day.
