I just have to share this with everyone. For the last 3 months i've been watching 2 little plants that appeared in my grass. After much reading of reference books etc, i decided they were White Helleborines, not a common sight and rather pretty. Anyway the little plants started to bud and everyday i have gone to check for developements. Today i have been rewarded, the first flower has opened....and they are Bee orchids!!! 'dances around very excited' I can't believe it!! The flower is absolutely beautiful I can't wait till more open and i can take some photos. I already have a Spotted orchid, which appeared last year and is very pretty, but the Bee orchid is truly amazing WOW!!
WOOHOOO!!!

That's wonderful, orchids only grow in very special soil, that's why thery're so rare. We have wild orchid in our nature protection area just across the road, and fortunately, this isn't a well-known fact, or people would go and pick them.
WOOHOOO!!!

I don't really want my garden to become well known either.
I took the first photo of it, i could'nt wait for more to open, so i'll just take more pics of them as the appear.
WOOHOOO!!!
