Caption
The species is hermaphrodite (has both male and female organs) and is pollinated by Bumblebees and butterflies. Flowers from July to August.
Grows up to 0.6 m (2ft) in meadows, pastures and the grassy bottoms of mountain corries, sometimes in scrub and thin conifer woodland, usually on lime-free soils. Prefers moist, but well-drained soil. It can grow in semi-shade (light woodland) or no shade.
EUROPE: Norway, Austria, Switzerland, Germany, Italy, France
