ORIGIN/HABITAT: This orchid is distributed in the northern Atlantic region
from the northern and western British Islands to Scandinavia to as far
north as Sør Trøndelag and east to Jutland. Plants grow from near sea
level to about 1650 ft. (500 m) in full sun. They may be found on neutral
to slightly acidic soils with moist to wet substrates, growing in damp
coastal meadows or depressions between dunes, and occasionally even on the
drier dune slopes.
