    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    A selection from Bressingham of this hardy terrestrial orchid chosen for its rapidity of multiplication. This does a lovely doubling at least each year when happy so a robust clump is not long in the offing. Good soil and moist but can take some late summer dry. Rare now and choice.
