Fan-Lipped Orchid Overview

Anacamptis collina is a tuberous, herbacous, perennial orchid species in the orchid family, Orchidaceae. It is terrestrial and thus grows in soil in the ground, producing lance-shaped foliage and small purple-white flowers. The flowers are arranged densely on a central spike and it is commonly known by the name Fan-Lipped Orchid.
