Not sure what Orchis micranthra is as it isn't on Google.

micranthra may be just a typo......

Orchis laxiflora f. micrantha (Domin) Asch. & Graebn. is a synonym of Anacamptis laxiflora (Lam.) R.M.Bateman, Pridgeon & M.W.Chase, as is  Orchis palustris f. micrantha Domin

Nice plant, but can't find another 11 plants on the list I can justify ordering with my limited space. I would only be interested in Galanthus ikariae and Narcissus triandrus and a couple of the crocuses. I feel another visit to Bill Dijk is in order.

Thanks. That would be greatly appreciated. 8) It was one I found difficult to come by when I lived in Scotland too.

I'll say this quietly (at this time of year it should be safe enough for the mad galanthophiles to be elsewhere ) - I do rather like these little flowers. Such sweet wee things.  :D


I'm here lol
