The orchids are flowering.

So many orchids have started flowering in the yard. It's a bit earlier than usual but most of them are out already.

@fbailey Thanks FB - they are all nice when they're out but this photo is overimpressive! LOL. They are all actually pretty spread out over a few acres.

@kiwinanna Thanks Liana - and luckily they are all pretty tough!!

@sarahlth Hi Sarah - there are lots - some come in big masses but some ( like the very vivid purple one) just produce the one flower.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond Hi Jackie - they are in our yard - spread over a couple of acres. Some are natives and some were my Dad's - he liked the big showy ones. They are all just on trees and get very little love and attention - pretty tough! Cheers

@shilohmom Thanks Batya - they make a nice show in spring.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

How pretty! I only used to seeing them in pots in someone's home.

@olivetreeann Hi Ann - they are pretty tough really - do quite well on a tree - and with very little care. Cheers

[Chris K]

@cruiser Thanks Chris - they are impressive when they all come out at once.

[Lisa Pouncy]

@psychographer Thanks Lisa - unfortunately they are spread out over an acre of bush so this is a bit of a cheat! :)
