Early-marsh orchid (dactylorhiza incarnata)

I am proud to present to you a special flower growing in our village at places I don't make known, namely a rare but beautiful orchid. Orchids are the most sophisticated plants in nature, developed late in evolution, very specialized and very strong. Only nature can seed them, men need laboratories for this.
