Default Pyramid orchids

As some of you will know, we manage most of our large garden as a
wildflower
meadow/wildlife friendly environment, which means among other things
that we
only cut the grass twice a year, and we spread some hay bales from a
wildflower-rich meadow in autumn. Imagine our delight then to find some
pyramid orchids growing there for the first time! No bad for land
which was
the spoil tip from a brick yard when we bought it!

Just thought I would share our pleasure.


Lucky you - how lovely! Any photos by any chance?

Yes. In the olden days of urg, Alan Gould sent round his lovely garden
photographs by snail mail and we had to pass them on the next poster in
a similar fashion. Sadly, I have lost touch with him now.
