About
Lady Slipper Orchid
The Lady Slipper Orchid is the largest orchid species in Northern Europe and the rarest orchid species in Denmark. The only place to view the Lady Slipper Orchid bloom, is at the hillside in 'Bjergeskoven' northwest of Skørping. The orchid blooms every year in the beginning of June, but only for about 2 weeks. It was first discovered in 1880, but was almost exterminated by careless poaching.
