The orchids are beautiful on Corstorphine Hill at the moment! Most of them, like this one, are common spotted orchids
This one is, I believe a hybrid between common spotted orchid and Northern marsh orchid:
The hill is looking lovely all over at the moment,
with lots of foxgloves in bloom
for 30 Days Wild.
Nice photos. There is a patch of northern marsh orchids by a small track not far below a memorial tree in the same part of the hill. That patch also has some hybrids with common spotted orchids.
