Chakrata, Uttarakhand Lovely Closeup…
I had seen this terrestrial orchid around 40 cm in height along “Govindghat-Ghangaria trail”. Wonderful pics.
Platanthera latilabris var.? ABAUG01/02 : 5 posts by 3 authors. 3 images. No this is Platanthera edgeworthii (=Habenaria edgeworthii). Spur goes up and curves down like monkey tail. Latilabris spur is much shorter than this.
I had first thought that I had found P. edgeworthii but later on closer look found the bracts slightly longer than ovaries and lips broad at base and tapering down. I think this should be Platanthera latilabris. Please advise. Gallu-Triund trek, Dharamshala, HP 2400m and above 24 July 2017 I think yes, your id is right, pics are very beautiful..!! This is indeed Platanthera edgeworthii and not latilabris.
