Platanthera chapmanii
Also called Chapman’s Fringed Orchid
Chapman's fringed orchid is a native terrestrial orchid of the southeastern US, found in wet pine savannas and seepage areas from East Texas to North Florida. It is rarely grown in gardens, and its success depends on keeping consistently moist, open, sunny habitat.
Platanthera chapmanii, common names Chapman's fringed orchid and Chapman's orange-fringed orchid, is an orchid that grows in Northern Florida and adjacent southeastern Georgia as well as in southeastern Texas. It is a monocot in the family Orchidaceae. It is part of the genus Platanthera, meaning wide anther in Latin.
