You might remember me a couple of years ago tracking a small plant, which I had removed from our small Bog and looked suspiciously like a terrestrial Orchid. It turned out to be a gorgeous Spiranthes odorata. In the meanwhile, I have since then treated this pot like a water- loving, warm growing Orchid, keeping it in Canadian Peatmoss, and taking it inside with all my other Orchid in the Fall. I water it year around! This is now a couple of years later!

Since this did so much better than the few plants which I had planted at the bog overflow, I removed those also, potted them up and treated them the same/warm and took them inside over the Winter. I didn't take a picture yet, since this plant has one great looking spike, but just starting to show white color, so picture will follow.
