Frozen Orchid


Tiny caps of ice let us know winter has finally arrived...

De minuscules bonnets de glace nous montrent que l'hiver est enfin arrivé ...

    It's arrived here, too, with a vengeance. Still snowing.... This is beautiful, but sad for the orchid.

    This is such a gorgeous picture Jilly...I wonder if the cold will kill the orchid. I hope not!

    You have orchids in your garden?
    Yes, hopefully it will stand the cold! Maybe it's a special "hardy winter-orchid"??

    It's in a pot just outside my terrace. The petals that were frozen have turned black but the rest of the flower seems fine, fingers crossed. There are several buds - another orchid too - and those also seem OK.

    We only have rain and grey skies, no snow no ice, and a French friend in Bordeaux, misses "the rugby weather" here. It is a Winter beauty of an image, and lovely to see yet another familiar blogger posting.
