Epipactis palustris is a species of orchid native to Europe and Asia. It is a perennial herbaceous plant with a stem growing to 60 cm high and as many as ten erect leaves up to 12 cm long and up to 4 cm wide. The flowers are 17 mm across arranged in a one-sided raceme and are typically deep pink or purplish-red in colour, although variants without most of the reddish colours have been called E. palustris var. ochroleuca. It is typically found in humid woodland and grassland, as well as in marshes, dune slacks and bogs. It is pollinated by wasps, bees and Diptera and relies on a symbiotic relationship with soil fungi for access to soil nutrients. The species epithet palustris is Latin for "of the marsh" and indicates its common habitat.
