It is very cold and damp here today, Rafa, so your pictures are even more welcome than usual! Thank you!

Dry here today so some tidying up done in the garden. Pleasant way to unwind, though. Beautiful flowers and that's a nice form of Orchis morio Rafa.

Never managed to see serapias in the wild, so that is fascinating to see. Allows us to relate our pots of plants to what they really look like in nature. Not sure a large pot of grass with a few serapias would be appreciated at a show, regardless of how natural it looked? ::)
