the little flower reminds me of autumn olive but don't think the leaves match. This was a small shrublike plant growing in shade deep in the woods

Broad-leafed Helleborine (Epipactis helleborine)Observer
bendingtreeDescription
An attempt to relocate a 30+ year old record for Cypripedium parviflorum resulted in this thing -- actually 3 of these small, weak-looking things, which look an awful lot like Cypripedium, but I just don't know for sure. Could be Epipactis?
This population was found under trees on a steep stream bank. Growing with Krigia biflora, Amphicarpaea bracteata, and Vicia caroliniana. The Vicia is significant, I think, because I notice it often grows in the same sites where Cypripedium grows (or used to grow) but seems to be able to persist in shaded conditions longer than that species.
