Bog Candle
These two TINY flowers are part of an elongated cluster of white flowers on a tall stem. This was the first time we'd seen one of these amazing native wild orchids. Found along the Picklejar Lakes trail in one location, on 6th August.
The height of Bog Candle, Platanthera dilatata, (also called Tall White Bog Orchid) is 15-65 cm. The raceme (flower cluster) has 12 - 60 of these tiny flowers. Flowers are white, and vanilla or clove scented. The scent while down low, taking macro photos, was heavenly : )
I was out for seven hours today at Brown-Lowery Provincial Park (south west of the city) with a few friends, finding, Lichens , Mosses and Fungi. I was so tired out that I had a late supper and woke up around 1:15 a.m. still sitting in front of the TV! Three consecutive days of fresh air have totally wiped me out - yet again! Only a very few more weeks left and the season for everything that grows will be over. It's the beginning of the end : (
