Here you will find rare orchid species and a large number of shrubs, such as the beautiful orchid orchid (Orchis militaria) and the purple orchid (Orchis purpurea). In addition, other heat-loving plants that occur on dry / semi-dry lawns such as the swallowwort, the white root, the sunflower, the tragacanth, the Wundklee. Best time to visit the orchid blossom is end is May to early June.
