Dactylorhiza maculata are usually 15–45 centimetres (5.9–17.7 in) in height, with a maximum of 70 centimetres (28 in). These plants form their buds in underground tubers or bulbs, organs that annually produce new stems, leaves and flowers. Furthermore these orchids are terrestrial: unlike epiphytes they do not live on other large plants.
