Common spotted-orchid - Dactylorhiza fuchsii

Date Photgraphed: 17/06/2012
Location: Near Warminster

Notes: This was one of the first English orchids I have ever seen. It was amazing to see such revered plants just sitting there; growing in the wild and un-harassed.
2013 Update: The photos below show the spots on the leaves, which unlike Heath spotted-orchid are not round.
