Because of the covid outbreak were not able to visit many of our favorite orchid hunting location this year. Most of the state parks and national forests were closed until late in the summer and the city parks also. We had to do most of our hiking in areas where there were no orchids and that were close to home. We did manage to visit Washington Park in Anacortes in late May but by that time the Fairy Slippers were nearly finished and we only saw a couple of them along with a few Coralroots.
Calypso bulbosa var. occidentalis (Western Fairy Slipper)
Corallorhiza maculata var. occidentalis (Western Spotted Coralroot)
