Arethusa
From LoveToKnow Garden
Arethusa - A. bulbosa is a beautiful American hardy Orchid, which grows in wet meadows or bogland, blossoming in May and June. Each plant bears a bright rose-purple flower that shows well on its bed of Sphagnum, Cranberry, and Sedge. The little bulbs grow in a mossy mat formed by the roots and decaying herbage of plants and moss. A shady moist spot with a northern exposure is best, and the soil should be a mixture of well-rotted manure and Sphagnum. During winter protect the bed with some cover.
