Maariankämmekkä (heath spotted-orchid or moorland spotted orchid in English) is a perennial plant of the Orchidaceae family. It is spread out through Europe and of most prevalent of its relatives in Finland, although it seems a bit less common at the northern part of Finland. Today I got a chance to shoot this little fellow.
We found a nice "vase" for this flower.

Maariankämmekkä was named after Virgin Mary (the mother of Jesus in the Bible), as its roots have an appearance of hands in prayer.
