Fantastic plants and good weather to enjoy them, Hans- lucky man!

 I don't know which Dactylorhiza it may be but I think I see some very handsome Orobanche  ?? in the picture Cypripedium 7 .

Maggi ,

thank you  :D

normaly we would made this trip before 3 weeks ...but it was not possibly about the bad weather ( a lot of snow on the roads - some some roads are closed ) .... now it was fine
Yesterday we had 30° ...but today 36° ...it is crazy !!!

Thank you for the idea with Dactyloriza - could it be D.maculata ?
I remeber the spottet leaves ..

To be true ...there was a lot of Neottia nidus-avis plants ....but I dont like it...so I have not taken pictures   ;)

Yes I to hope they are left alone. When I visited Branklyn gardens in Perth a few years ago there was all these small round holes in the ground. I asked a gardener as he was passing and he said it was where once Pleione bulbs were. I couldn't believe that someone that paid to visit this lovely garden would steal the plants, such a shame what some folks would do  :o
