Orchis canariensis is a species of orchid endemic to the Canary Islands.

Previously described as a subspecies of Orchis patens, it is now accepted as a separate species also supported by a molecular study that has highlighted a significant genetic difference between the two taxa.

[1] Orchis canriensis is a bulbous geophyte, which grows to 30 cm (12 in) basal leaves are wide, ovate, dark green and slightly shiny, and never spotted.

Flowers are lilac or pink, sometimes green in the central part of the sepal, with purple markings on the lower lips.

It usually grows in rocky walls with mossy shelves with accumulation of litter and pine needles or in pine forests, generally occurring between 500 and 1,300 m altitude.
