'Nope, I'm looking for flowering Ladies...'... Did they believe your answer, James?
Hahaha, I was thinking the same thing!

yep - the season has ground to a halt in Kent
Yesterday I had 47 Lady Orchids near Queensdown Warren in various stages, White Helleborine yet to flower and Man Orchids still in bud - hooray when it gets warmer!
For those that know the Lady site I mention I was approached by police asking what I was up to - the site is used for gay dogging so please be cautious if you visit.
Cheers

Hi everyone, that time of year again!
We were planning a visit to Cumbria for the local specialities on 14/5 but the warden tells us it's a late year and we'll need to go at the end of May. That leaves us with a blank day - does anyone know whether the various Marsh Orchids are showing at Newborough, Cors Goch etc,

Yes, rather slow going at the moment James but what's there is certainly worth seeing. Found a Man just starting to open near Folkestone this morning.

PS Did the police really say "up to" ?

Visited two young ladies in the chilterns this morning - one lady-monkey hybrid in flower
They were looking lovely in the sunshine this morning|=)|
I would like to take some decent pictures of birdsnest orchids this year - would appreciate it if anyone could let me know of any good sightings - esp Warwickshire - or Chilterns - Thanks
