The origin/habitat information below is supplied courtesy of Charles and Margaret Baker
The following information is based on the name of the plant provided by the donor, and assumes that the name is correct. If the plant has been misidentified, then the following information may not be correct.
This text is copyrighted by the Bakers and may not be reproduced without permission.
ORIGIN/HABITAT: The eastern U. S. from northwest Florida along the Gulf
Coast to eastern Texas and then north just west of the Mississippi River
to southern Wisconsin. Distribution then extends eastward across the
southern Great Lakes region, curving northeastward to include all of the
New England states. Plants are not found in a narrow band along the
Atlantic coast southward from eastern Virginia and including the eastern
portions of North and South Carolina, Georgia, and northern Florida.
Little has been written describing the habitat for this orchid, but
McCartney (1984) reported plants growing "in the rich, damp understory of
a forested area near a rushing mountain stream." The area was located
about 2500 ft. (760 m) above sea level in the Granny Squirrel Gap region
of the Appalachians, which is near Andrews in the southwestern tip of
North Carolina.
