Before you order:
Please be assured that our goal as native plant growers with over 45 years of experience, is to support the intention and needs of our customers. Whether you are an industry professional or home conservationist, or if you just like GREAT plants! We want your return business!
We are always available to answer questions about a plant's cultural needs or to assist our customers with any questions to make working with Mid Atlantic Natives a superior experience. To do this, we cannot stress enough the importance of selecting the right species for your application and environment. Each lant species had detailed information for its suitable, preferred environment (Sun, wet, dry, acidic, etc.) We provide this information so you can make the best selections and have the best results. (as in, I planted a water plant in a desert dune and don't know why it died!!)
Before selecting plants,please ask yourself:
Are the site conditions correct for the species you select? Do you know how to correctly plant? Are you able to provide the aftercare needed?
It is important to us that you are successful with your investment. We would rather not sell our plants then have a dissatisfied, unprepared customer or, equally as upsetting to us, any plant mortality.
Because we have no control over how plants are handled after they are shipped, or of any element of a planting project from design to installation, we cannot offer any guarantees of plant survival. Please make sure you select plant material suitable for your project’s conditions and environment. All Sales Are Final
We are careful to keep varieties true to name, but mistakes sometimes happen. It is mutually agreed that our liability for any errors is confined to replacement with correct species or, if not available, credit of the purchase price.
In the event of an incorrect count we will send the missing items. There is no opportunity for a credit unless those items are not available. The credit will be for the missing amount only.
Damage
Because of the type of packaging and custom-designed box style we use, shipping issues are rare. If there is a problem with your purchased items, it must be reported to us within 72 hours of receipt. Photos of the shipping materials and plants will be requested.
Claims resulting from carrier issues will result in your order being replaced or refunded once the claim is settled with the carrier.
Please report any other problems immediately, and we will make every effort to resolve any issues to your satisfaction. Under no circumstances will the claim amount exceed the order amount.
Inspections
Our nursery stock has been inspected by the Virginia Department of Agriculture. Your order will be shipped with a VA Nursery Inspection certificate. A copy of our current nursery certificate is here.
Need more "Fine Print"? We hope you do! For fun, and because you have to agree to it, please read our full "Terms and Conditions".

Platanthera ciliaris, commonly called Orange Fringed Bog Orchid, is widely distributed throughout eastern and central Canada and the United States, from Florida to Ontario, and around the Gulf Coast to Texas. It is a large, showy plant bearing up to 115 bright orange or dark yellow flowers with a heavily fringed labellum. A long, cylindrical spur extends out behind the flower. It produces 2-4 large, spreading leaves lower down on its stem, gradually reducing to bracts in the upper portion of the stem. It can be found in moist meadows, marshes, bogs, and woodlands, as well as along roadsides. This orchid is known to form a natural hybrid with P. blephariglottis, named P. × bicolor, and with P. cristata, named P. × channellii.
Platanthera ciliaris is considered globally secure, but is rare throughout much of the western edge of its range.
Pollination
This orchid is pollinated by butterflies including Danaus plexippus, Papilio glaucus, Papilio polyxenes, Papilio troilus, Satyrium liparops and moths such as Hyles lineata, as they search for nectar. When the insect sticks its long proboscis into the flower to collect nectar, the pollinia attaches to the compound eyes and is carried to the next flower as it searches for nectar.
