Green-winged Orchids in full flower at Marden Meadow, Kent. Always a great spectacle with plenty of colour variations offering extra interest.
Early Purple Orchids from the North Downs, Surrey. @ukorchids

There was once a beautiful bee orchid near the physics block, the biggest I have ever seen. 5 weeks, and in its place cut grass. Near Rootes, a colony of them, mown flat since March And yet 'my' early purple orchid stands defiant in the shade @ukorchids @BSBIbotany
In the Meadow opposite where I live, in Malvern. Wild Garlic, Bugle, Lady’s Smock & Common spotted Orchid. Also Blubells, @WorcsWT @Love_plants @theNPMS @BSBIbotany #wildflowerhour @ukorchids
Back to Samphire Hoe today, ,plenty of Early Spiders on show ,but probably past their best. Along the beach and on the cliff sides ,they,re at there full height .Found a pale specimen ,which i thought was a faded flower ,but now not sure +1 of interest,for later on! @ukorchids
In #Lyevalley #fen we find to our delight our first Early Marsh Orchid Dactylorhiza incarnata is in flower! A dark pink version with typical unspotted leaves. A big reward for all that #scything & raking. Wonder how many more to come. Will we beat last year's total of 50 flowers?
Lady Orchids, Kent. Although I was a tad too early for most to be out, I love the contrast between the burgundy buds and pink open flowers😍 @ukorchids @KentWildlife @Love_plants @theNPMS @BSBIbotany
Woodland Early Purple Orchids seen this afternoon including a lovely ‘Alba’ specimen …@ukorchids
Stumbled across a colony of Early Purple Orchids in a north Lincs wood today, at least 260 spikes. And then another 20 in a wood a mile away 🌸
Just when you think you got somewhere sorted , up pop another 400 Early Purple Orchids on Cleeve Common Gloucestershire @CleeveCommon where I personally not recorded before inc this gorgeous “ Alba” plant @ukorchids
23/4/24 Dorset Didn’t Disappoint, Dorchester, Dancing Ledge, Durlston @ukorchids Woodcock x Fly hybrid, Early Spider, Green-winged & Early Purple Orchids. Tx to those who have me info & advice, including @DurlstonCP
A beautiful chimera green winged orchid...Melrose farm meadows..@ukorchids @EuropeanOrchids
So may not be the first Fly Orchids in the country , But conceivably Gloucestershire this am , two spikes flowering six more on the way , Stroud Valleys @ukorchids @EuropeanOrchids @wildflower_hour @FloraConsUK
