Latin name: Listera ovata
Size: Grows up to 30cms.
Distribution: Found throughout the UK.
Flowering months: May to July.
Habitat: Damp meadows and woodlands.
Special features: The twayblade is our commonest orchid. The name comes from the two broad leaves
(tway blades) at ground level.
 The flowers are often overlooked as they are green in
colour. Up to 100 appear on a single stem which shoots up from between the two leaves.
