Range and Habitat
This orchid can be found in most parts of Europe, northern Africa, Turkey, and the Caucasus. Lady orchids usually grow in woodlands, in the oak forests, in slope and in the meadows, but occasionally occur on savanna. They prefer limestone or chalk soil, in shady or sunny places, at an altitude of 0–1,350 metres (0–4,430 ft) above sea level.
