Finally Flowers ..

10 maybe 15 years ago we went through a "Let's Grow Orchids" phase.
Some are still lurking around the garden in various stages of neglect - except One.


I planted it on a hollow log that was put under the Japanese Maples and forgotten, but each time we weeded the Violets from around it we were surprised that it was actually flourishing.

Today I walked past and noticed its First Ever Flower Spike!

I was doing all sorts of excited 'Happy Dances' 
and DH said 'Oh yeah I saw that last week....'

- Good Grief-


Anyway I was happy...

And keen to watch the buds opening
Are they Green..
Or Yellow?

No - Cream
With Purple Spots in it's Throat.

It has long since lost it's label so I can't tell you what it is - 

(Any Ideas? 
Let me know in the comments!)
