As a supplement - M.Fiedor, one of polish professional orchidologist (and the owner of the website, whose link - the first one, I presented last week) sent me today a couple of pictures from NE Czech Republic (still Silesia). Dactylorhiza sambucina photographed by Czech colleague E.Chmiel frome one side, where this kind of plants occurred since years. Only because orchid  fans care well about this place and plants are under good protection, we can still enjoy them. No more information will be given about this place and I'm really very glad for given me a permission to show them here (Marek - thanks once again!!).  - but this is definitely this species.

This colour form must be replicable so it's only a matter of time before seedlings appear?
