I noticed an #orchid in the grass last year, since then I have got good at spotting them so I mark them so I don't accidentally mow them. Up to about 10 now just emerging to flower

You don't get that with your Agent Orange derived 2,4-D infested carcinogenic weed n feed.

That's an orchid? Never seen one like that, cool!

Yeah, I will take a better photo next week when its out more. The flowers are like little versions of the large tropical ones. There are some pretty weird looking ones like the one I had outside my house one year before the council contractors strimmer ate it

My favorite lawn orchid surprise was finding Lady’s Tresses in the yard as a kid and learning they’re not only orchids, but native. Otherworldly, unusual looking flower

πŸ‘ Some are very bizarre in apearance and I keep finding more of them now. I thought it was going to be a random bluebell but it's a pinky violet colour so I am glad I avoided mowing it in the end.

Awesome, I love wild orchids and nostr ppl! thnx for being careful!
