Gymnadenia corneliana is a species of orchid with light-pink petals, found only in the Southwestern Alps in a small region near the France-Italy border.[1] It was first catalogued by Swiss botanist Gustave Beauverd. Some specimens of this orchid display slightly darker petals, although this is uncommon.[citation needed] This flower, like many orchids in its genus, is said to emit a pleasant odor resembling that of vanilla.[2]
