Calopogon tuberosus - flowering outside in our bathtub-bog in June 2009.
I hope it survived the Winter and blooms again this year.

We shall see, Kathy. It's too early to tell.
Talking about the "outside-Orchids" in our yard - one of the Calanthes, it might be the x kozu, is coming up. Thumbs up

I would leave it outside, yes. And because it is in a pot, protect from frost.
Good luck with it, it should be nice!!
