Anacamptis coriophora
Anacamptis coriophora is an extremely rare flower in Israel, today it is known from 2 areas - lower Mount Hermon and north of the Hula Valley. all these areas are now constantly under Hezbollah missiles, so this year I didn't go visiting them.
so you can imagine our pleasure, our surprise and our joy when we found one on mount Carmel!
