Ophrys helenae

[Hristo]

Hi there,
Simply a show and tell, O.helenae flowering on my SW facing windowsill!
Have played cupid and shall now hope for some seed to plate and to scatter around
O.scolopax in the open garden! We live in hope

Welcome Hristo! Good to have you join in too. The Rakia isn't here, so you Bulgarian migrants must have already scoffed the lot!  You will need to stock up before  all the SRGC types come visiting.....

Hi Maggie,
Well I guess if they like Whisky......... The Rakia really harks back to the days of the illicit still, my neighbour has her own wee copper stil, I have spent many a happy evening after work in the nursery/garden is finished butchering Bulgarian ( language )and driniking Rakia with her!
Can't beat a good springs days work, then off to photopgraph the local wildflowers, Rakia and shopska salata as the sun sinks over the mountains!
