Yesterday when I went out for a walk in the vineyard with Tasha I noticed a patch of ground not very far from our house where there were about two dozen orchids growing. I didn't have my camera with me. However, I do have my photo archives on my laptop. So I picked a year, basically at random — it was 2009 — and loaded all the photos I had taken in April that year. These are some of them. They're the orchids I'm talking about, and they grow wild in this area. In French, they are called fleurs de Pentecôte. The ones I saw yesterday weren't as tall as these, but maybe they'll get taller this week. Predictions are for more and more sunny, warm weather as the days go by.
More and more sunny, warm weather... that's nice to hear :)
ReplyDeleteWe're having three days of rain, but we need it. We had a different sort of wild orchid back in the woods of our old house. Your orchids are lovely.
ReplyDeleteClever guy to go back into your archives and pull up these orchids! Just lovely!
