About a third of the orchids at the site have red parts in their blossoms, the others are
pale yellow as usual for Orchis provincialis. It is not known, whether the red colour is
available in the genes of Orchis provincialis, or wether the orchids are descendants of
hybrids with Orchis langei, olbiensis or mascula. At least today none of these orchids
of the mascula group is still available at the site. There are several sites like this in
Northern Spain, and also in the island of Corsica.
