Open bogs throughout the State, common in the Northern, 

 Pine Barren and Cape May districts, less common and local in 

 the Middle district. 



This is a beautiful orchid and one that is generally distributed 

 through the bogs of southern New Jersey, the large pink flowers 

 being very showy. As a rule there is but a single flower on each 

 plant, but in a large bog near Bennett on June 30, 1909, I found 

 them quite frequently two-flowered. Occasionally white flowers 

 occur. 



Fl. — Early June to early July, rarely later.
