Post by: Thorkild Godsk on December 03, 2013, 08:43:22 AM

Hello.
Is there anyone on the forum who can tell me the name of this Orchid?
it has narrow leaves and tall,
I think it is a Dactylorhiza, but what's more?

Kindy

probably Dact. fuchsii, rather then Dact. maculata

Hello Thorkild,
whatever it is, it's beautiful and quite exceptional. I am inclined to think that it is a dactylorhiza hybrid, something like Dact. x grandis, because of the unusual height. Do you have a closeup of the flower?

Hello Maren
Thank you for your information, I have no closeup of the flower.
