Southern Marsh Orchid - Dactylorhiza praetermissa

Southern Marsh Orchid - Dactylorhiza praetermissa (Dactylorhiza praetermissa)

To my mind an altogether more attractive little plant. This site, Alyn Waters, is normally full of orchids at this time, its a good Bee Orchid site but yesterday I could find only one rosette and a broken-off spike. Apart from Twayblade this was the only orchid I could find in flower.
