| Galeola septentrionalis,
a saprophytic orchid species lacking chlorophyll, occurs in the
forests in mountainous regions. Stems are thick, yellowish-brown in
the whole, growing up to 1m in height, making many branches.
Scale-like stuff on the stems has degenerated leaves, which make it
feel weird. Upper units each set 3cm long yellow-brown flowers in a
racemose manner. Bloom time: June-July. |
