Orchis Polliniana

Pollinian orchid, scientifically known as Orchis polliniana, is a rare and fascinating member of the orchid family found primarily in the Mediterranean region. This delicate plant is characterized by its striking violet-blue flowers and unique pollination mechanisms that have captivated botanists for centuries. Thriving in moist, shaded environments, it often grows in woodland areas and along riverbanks. Due to habitat loss and over-collection, the Pollinian orchid is now listed as endangered in many parts of its native range. Conservation efforts are underway to protect and restore its natural habitats, ensuring its survival for future generations.
