      This is one of the better known native orchids around here, Cattleya violacea, but such a strong flowering as this plant is unusually prolific.

      The journey is the objective.

        A native tree locally called alcornoque (Tabebuia aurea) drops all its leaves and subs them with yellow flowers for a week, sometimes longer. Duration depends on wind conditions mostly. It is a stunning sight…you could sit and have a snack shaded by the dense flowering.

        The journey is the objective.

              Good morning, @twin - hope you're doing well.  Autumn is well and truly here now in the UK, it's beautiful but the weather is not so good today.  We're going on a hike on Sunday, will be sure to get some pics.  Miss you x x x

                            A short tribute to my Mum, Brenda Woodward, born 3/3/33, died 25/11/2020 (poignantly, 70 years to the day she married our dear and long-departed Dad).

                            It may seem strange to post in the Cheer for P thread, but whilst this is sad news we are grateful that she left us with so many happy memories.  She was a caring, eccentric, generous Mum who filled our lives with love and fun and created a close and loving family, for which I am so grateful.

                            Paul, her partner of 30 years, her four daughters (Lisa, me, Sara and Rachel), her son (Mark), her grandchildren and great-grandchildren will miss her enormously.

                            Most of you reading this will know that my brother Mark is in hospital too, very ill with Covid pneumonia.  So, whilst we mourn Mum, all our hopes and prayers are for his recovery.
