Bee orchid

By TonyDy
This Bee orchid (Ophrys Apifera) was photographed last week in Grazalema National Park in Andalucia.
Unfortunately, most of the orchids had finished but I managed to find a couple hanging on!

got them in our garden at the moment. yours is a lot brighter pink.
I'm lucky they are there, not only for their beauty but because Chris stopped cutting the grass after I pleaded for their survival I also find lots of butterflies in the bit of wild meadow under the apple trees.
