First Orchid of the year to flower.

Another phalaenopsis which started to flower at the beginning of December is still going strong as is the Onsidium Twinkle recently blipped, but this is the first to commence flowering in 2024, revealing quite delicate colouring.
At last a bright sunny but increasingly cold day. Despite the recent wet, miserable weather we have little to complain about because the rain finds its way to the river and out to sea, only a few minor lanes occasionally flooded.I feel sorry for those badly affected by the serious flooding further afield.
