Barry: I just got back from a trip to Sylvania Wilderness in Upper MI. Rattlesnake plantain orchids were in bloom there this morning. They have four species that grow in hemlock forests. I think their timing of flowering is regulated at least partly by the shortening day length, so they should also be in bloom in your area.
