Very nice this orchidee, I have searched the town of your grandmother, and I knew that is a country near my father`s town in Italy. Greetings.

Thanks Laura for the comments.

I have googled Arpino aswell, it is a beautiful town and in such a lovely part of the country.

Ciao Ciao, Palmina

This one is also very, very beautiful, Palmina! Makes me long for the summer! Cheers, Anne

Thanks once again Anne these flowers only last a day.....not because of any genetic thing but because the Possum's come down and eat them each night. I guess it's Nature's pruning system!

HI Palmina

Even if the possums didn't get to them, they only last a few days anyway...

It is an iris, known as Dietes grandiflora, coming form South Africa, but we see lots of them in Australia...

Cheers
