Description
A common spotted orchid (Dactylorhiza fuchsii) in the early stages of flowering, with only the lower flowers in bloom. It is one of Europe's more common orchids and is also found across much of northern Asia in a wide range of woodland and grassland habitats. The flowers can vary in colour from a very pale to deep pink with delicate patterns.
