Paul T:
Jorge,

More of your wonderful Ophrys.  Thank you so much.  The second last pic (the last of the O. ciliata) certainly does show how similar they are to a wasp doesn't it.  Not surprising that the wasps end up being fooled by the pheromones put out by the plant, as there is certainly nothing in appearance to obviously give them away as fake.  I didn't realise that Ophrys came in forms with such significant flower heads?  That last species looks like it has soem decent height and branching to it.  I always thought they were fairly short with only a few flowers to them.

Thanks again for the pictures.  ;D

Paddy Tobin:
