Habenaria repens (Water-spider orchid)
Some orchid flowers really look like something else -- namely, insects. This one was aptly named, Water-spider orchid. First, the plants are often found growing in a few inches of water, but always near ponds or streams. Finally, the flowers really do look like little green and white spiders -- really neat flowers!
