Description:
2011-07-17 Lower Austria, district Neunkirchen - forest near Schneeberg mountain (810 msm Quadrant 8261/1).German name: Kriech-NetzblattSee also other shots from the same place (linked below).This orchid doesn't look like an orchid at first sight; its leaves are don't have parallel venes (as would be usually the case, for monocots) but veins are connected to each other, and last but not least they're producing offshoots off the roots, and thus creating whole carpets of rosettas.(In front there are also a couple of Orthilia secunda.)
