Description

This is a wild orchid that seeded itself in a hanging basket at the back of my home. The plant is a protected species in UK. I am not allowed to move it. It blooms every year and is my pride and my joy. So much is happened in our lives at the moment, David's contract for work in London has not been renewed. I am so happy he will now be home with me, for a while at least. I thank you for looking and for treasured comments. Have a beautiful weekend. Hugs. Diane.

This is utterly gorgeous! I love orchids in general and this one in particular. Everything about this capture is exquisitely lovely. But you can't move it? WOW!

An amazing beauty. No surprise it chose your garden to hide in though! Mullaney has finally had enough good weather to start her garden. She checks every day to see if her Englisg Faeries are blooming. We have told her they are columbines, she says we may call them that if we like, but she knows their secret name, they told her in a dream.
