Epipactis Cordata

Epipactis cordata, also known as the heart-leaved helleborine, is a unique orchid species native to parts of Europe and Asia. It is characterized by its heart-shaped leaves and striking, showy flowers that bloom in late spring. This plant thrives in moist, shaded environments such as woodlands and meadows. Despite its beauty, it is often overlooked due to its subtle appearance and habitat preferences. Its ecological importance lies in its role as a food source for various pollinators and its contribution to biodiversity.
