| Summary: | Above the Arctic Circle, monitoring of a population of Cypripedium calceolus was conducted in 1992-1998, and 7-year population dynamics were analyzed. In 1998, experimental work on artificial pollination was carried out. The absence of typical insects for pollination and the short growing period with low temperatures were main constraints to the distribution of this orchid in the northernmost regions. |
