Those pictures were taken about 3 weeks so ago. Probably still blooming but I can't say for sure. I found one source online that says July - September. While searching for info I came across this photo from 2014. It's a picture somebody else took of me photographing the Orchids at the preserve.

Cool! I love the orange color on those orchids. Must've been fun finding them! Wild orchids are always a fun suprise.
