Epipactis gigantea
14th May 2007
A bog plant from the western USA. I'm not convinced that I have the conditions right yet, but I haven't killed it either. When I was just a little orchidette I grew
Epipactis palustris and insisted on killing it in a conventional compost in complete disregard of the warning offered by "palustris". With luck, thirty years
of gentle rain will have washed the stupidity from me, and I can get this one to prosper.
