British Orchids

I consider myself a a total novice to botany and pay a vague interest during periods where bird migration is low. I have listed the Orchids in the order shown in the Collins Complete guide to British Wild Flowers. The order may be adjusted when the Field guide to orchids of Great Britain is published in September 2020.
