The Southern Marsh Orchid is the common marsh orchid of south and east England. Grows on alkaline or neutral soils, but seems to be doing fine in a pot here in an acid mix. All of these species hybridise easily, so I cannot vouch for their parentage, though these are tissue cultured, so I assume they are true to name.

One of the species that grows locally and occasionally turns up in pots, usually those containing bog plant or things like Watsonia that I keep very wet.
