Red Man Orchid by Joe Vary
Red Man Orchid is part of Wild and Free, a collection of wildlife portraits capturing some of our planet’s incredible wildlife. This photograph captures a very striking red form of the Man Orchid (Orchis anthropophora).
The Man Orchid is one of our earlier flowering British native orchids. I thought that it got its name from the little flowers that resemble people with arms, legs and a head. However, another story suggests that wild flower lovers spread the story that if you picked these beautiful flowers you would be visited by the hangman the very next day.
