I have seen Loeselii Twayblade Orchid [Liparis loeselii] many times in New England and they always appear small with only a few flowers. Yesterday I saw a great many with seed pods in Northeastern, Pa.. I counted as many as 14 pods on a single flower stalk! These appear to be much more robust plants and can't wait to see them in bloom in mid June. Now is a great to be out looking for orchids, by finding their seed pods, a little snow can help to make them stand even more. I-3-22
