As many of you know I have an interest in gardening.
Once a week I garden for a customer I worked for over a good many years looking after her property. When her then gardener became ill she asked would U take over
Since then jointly we decided to let one of the grassed areas become a meadow, only cutting the whole area once a year. The only part cut is the the walk ways .
In one area under an old apple tree I noticed some leaves from then an unknown plant. As soon as it had reached about 100 mm in hight on the two main leaves I noticed spots , a quick check suggested an orchid.
Since then every year it has come up, including another plant near by
This year has been the best so far as two blooms have formed on one plant and one on the other.
Thrilled as these have just arrived, leaving this area of lawn to go wild has resulted in these two stunning plants .

, I'm no expert .
that would be the only way that was truly feasible, other than some one dropping seeds .
