very nice, do you keep them in a cold or heated greenhouse?

Thanks, Yann. I grow it with minimum temperatures of 10°

Thanks mellifera! I like your white green-winged orchid.

This is Dactylorhiza romana.

A great photo and a wonderful plant. Well done, Tristan.
I also like the dark colour of Anacamptis morio x longicornu

Here a group of different colours from Anacamptis morio.
The tallest are over 25 cm high.

I went on a Naturetrek day trip to Sussex on Thursday to see the early spider orchids on the south downs. Fortunately the weather was kind and we also saw small copper, dingy skipper and early heath butterflies and emperor moths.

Love the spider orchids Gail!

My Ophrys have finished for the year now and I have bee doing some repotting and vegetative propagation (though I may have missed the boat a bit here). Nevertheless some good tubers. Here is O. helenae:

The purple is perfect, Gail
Also the spottet leaves are nice.

The blue is very special!

A remake of Dactylorhiza Foliorella gx (foliosa x purpurella). There is a bit of color variation, but some seedlings have a very deep intense purple color.

Dactylorhiza iberica is also in full flower and quite different from other Dactylorhiza. It is supposed to spread by stolons, so I have pollinated it with pollinia from Foliorella gx and praetermissa to see if I can introduce this trait in hybrids that are easier to grow.

Very nice Anders, you have an impressive collection!

Here is my Dactylorhiza 'Tizzy Hornell' which is a large and vigorous plant with a colour that really should come with a health warning (or at least wear sunglasses!)

I am a bit late posting my Dactylorhyza purpurella pics but here are a few.  D. purpurella seeds around usually into pots in the frame.  I rescue them when repotting and pot them separately.  I was most surprised last year when a pure white one appeared in a pot with 2 of usual purple colour. It looks to me like pure purpurella but I am not very good at noticing subtle differences.  It is still alive and flowered again this year. There are colonies of Dactylorhyza maculata not far away but I have never found a pure white one.

Dactylorhyza purpurella has also escaped from my garden and is spreading in my ponies' field in a very wet spot.  It is a native but I am not sure where the nearest natural colony is.  I have not seen it growing locally.

Dactylorhiza spread everywhere it's wet, once i visited a friends after exploring a bog, 2 years after he sent me photos of "strange leaves". It was D. praetermissa, surely from seeds sticked under my shoes.

Nice photos.

Are these orchids also in cultivation?

Hi mellifera,
I think they are cultivated but I don't have much luck with terrestrial orchids so haven't grown them.
There are many growers in parts of Australia and there's a group (Australian Native Orchid Society) that specialises in them,

Helmuth Beyrle (www.myorchids.de) has quite a few Australian species including some Diuris. All propagated from seed.

My friend Jill is doing a talk this weekend on Italy and would like some help ID'ing an orchid she saw outside Villa Lante (wild area of garden).
Any help would be appreciated!

It looks like Green Winged Orchid, Orchis ? morio.
Title: Re: Terrestrial orchids 2021

Yes I agree, Green-winged orchid. Has been moved to Anacamptis now.

Thanks, Ian and Tristan,
that helps a lot.
European ground orchids are a complete mystery to me!

Goodyera oblongifolia from seeds, deflasked spring 2020 (lower) and 2021 (upper). They haven't flowered yet. The seeds were a kind gift from Gabriela. The second picture shows the nice veining of the leaves, which is very different from the European repens.
