Bletilla, probably B.striata. It's an orchid. Where did you find it?

Thank you so much. This was growing in a park in Brooklyn, NY.

I said possibly B.striata based on the fact that that is the most commonly available one here in the UK - I forgot that you're in the US.

I appreciate your input. I've researched your suggestion and by all accounts and measures, that's exactly what this is. So I'll go with your suggestion until somebody can prove it wrong. Apparently it grows very well in Brooklyn too, lol.
