Some Amitostigma cultivars (not really my cup of tea, I prefer the natural species):








Amitostigma sp. -A tiny Chinese species which has a single slightly pustulate basal leaf.

It is indeed, John.  There were many groups like this - though not, I don't think, quite as many as last year, which was REALLY fantastic.  I think the grasses etc are  higher than last year though, so perhaps the orchids are just not so visible in some areas. Hard to tell exactly.

This clump which arrived in a tub in the garden last year entirely of its own volition is doing rather well: Dactylorhiza fuchsii.

The last Dactylorhizas in my garden this year: D. praetermissa, a bunch of D. incarnate forma ochrantha and seedlings from a majalis x maculata cross. The maculata was almost white, and the seedlings all have different patterns on the lip. The purpurellas are also at their peak now, but my camera simply can't capture the color.

Yes, Herminium monorchis. And speaking of small and yellowish, I just noticed that a few Liparis kumokiri seedlings are also flowering.

Hi,
my Ponerorchis graminifolia seems to like it here. This year it won a few 1st prizes at local shows and a Cultural Commendation from the RHS. Well done, my little plant, I'm proud of you. I wish I had a few more like this and with pretty colours. Actually, I do have some but they don't grow as well as this one. Must be a good clone.
