Not sure it grows in the UK at all... You would need dense woodland and the host plant that it is parasitic on to grow. Oddly it is a member of the ericaceous family!

It also has a special relationship with specific mycohrriza as well as host trees. It is parasitic too.
I has recently been re classified MG due to DNA analysis.

Oh what is the new classification?

Hi thanks for this. Yes the variety hypopitys grows in Britain and I would love to try growing this in a deep shade garden but know it is very difficult. Are there any success stories/ attempts/ anywhere to buy seeds or small plants?
