Amitostigm gracilis, a small orchid species occurring on cliffy, damp rocks, is found in moss carpets. A bit aslant, the stems grow to 5 to 15cm tall, with a single leaf at the base, long oblong or broad lanceolate shaped, 3-8cm long and 1-2cm wide, the margins being entire, and the basal parts somewhat embracing the stems. Approximately ten 0.3mm across, red-purple flowers appear on the stem tip and open facing the same direction in the summertime. Bloom time: June-July.
