Spotted Coralroot (Corallorhiza maculata), one of the few orchids that we have here in Southern Colorado, USA
(lemmy.world)
Corallorhiza maculata is a myco-heterotroph; meaning that it lacks chlorophyll and obtains energy by parasitizing the mycelium of fungi in the family Russulaceae. The rhizome and lower stem are often knotted into branched coral shapes, giving it its name.
