Northern slender lady's tresses
Northern slender lady's tresses is a perennial orchid characterized by a slender, spiraling stalk adorned with small, white or greenish flowers. Each blossom, typically arranged in three ranks, brandishes a fringed lip, a signature trait of this variety. Thriving in meadows and grasslands, northern slender lady's tresses is adapted to well-drained soils, often benefiting from environments undergoing periodic disturbances which reduce competition from more dominant vegetation.
