Greenfly Orchid, Not Blooming

It's growing on the underside of a Magnolia tree.

Sadly, this location is not safe from development. The owners are selling it, and although it's at a reduced price and the state has given a grant for half the price, the funds are still short. There's still a move to save it, but if another $50,000 isn't raised by April 1, 2009, this natural site may disappear, along with all the wonderful plant life. More info can be found at www.flwildflowers.com/wolfcreek/ .

 

UPDATE!!! Wolf Creek has been saved by donations! This land will now be preserved. I hope I can return and take more photos someday. :)
