The last of the sepaloid Bee orchids in Exeter today but a Pyramidal orchid has rocked up (first for this site) and the marbled whites have replaced the painted ladies 😃 @ukorchids.bsky.social @orchidvinny.bsky.social
Three examples of spotty leaved dacts from the slumping East Devon cliffs last weekend. Welcome views on whether these are good for Leopard Marsh vs D. x grandis. @ukorchids.bsky.social @orchidvinny.bsky.social @lizlouise.bsky.social
A lusus Common twayblade (Neottia cordata) with upper petals mimicking the lip. A triplelipoid sort of thing 😃 Dorset 14/6/2026. First found a few years ago by @orchidvinny.bsky.social @ukorchids.bsky.social
A few Bee orchids at Exeter Tesco & maybe 100 small but lovely plants on the unmown bank at Pynes. 5/6/2026 @ukorchids.bsky.social
