Ophrys × sommieri

Ophrys × sommieri is a natural orchid hybrid, a cross between Ophrys bombyliflora and Ophrys tenthredinifera sensu lato. It can potentially occur anywhere around the Mediterranean Basin where both its parents co-occur, but it is recorded particularly often in Sardinia and southern Italy.
Like its parent O. bombyliflora, it has the capacity to reproduce vegetatively, resulting in conspicuous clumps.
