Ophrys speculum ssp speculum


Ophrys speculum ssp speculum Mirror speculum

Orquídea espejo

The top photograph was taken today, and the lower photo shows how it should  look. It is not very common to find one without the blue colour pigment, but there are a few populations of the rarer one around. It grows from 5~30cms tall and flowers from February to May. It is native to south of the Iberian peninsula.
