Dominican Republic is home to many types of orchids, something I hadn’t realized until my last visit.
I had been there a number of times before, but somehow I had missed how plentiful they are.
It’s lovely to see them just growing where they like, these beautiful splashes of ostentatious and frilly colour.
The freedom to take root in the ground of choice is one we should all be able to enjoy. 🙂
I love that last “freedom” line. If only we all had the courage to do so…
Thank you! 🙂
That’s the truth.
Absolutely stunning photos, Lynette. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Jill. We’ve had so much cold weather that it seemed like the right time for some flowers. 🙂
Beautiful flowers, Freedom should be something everyone is entitled to.
It should, but sadly, not always so.
Thanks for the bright pop of colour on this cold winter day Lynette. Allan
You are very welcome, Allan. 🙂 -40 here today ( and I don’t know about wind chill, but yikes! It was cold!).
Our forecast said we were colder than the top of Everest here yesterday. Thanks goodness. Now, I do not have to climb it to find out what it is like. Stay warm Lynette. Allan
You’re right.
Freedom!
Yes! 🙂 I like Janis Joplin but never agreed with her about freedom …
Lovely orchids. One of my favorite flowers.
They are so beautiful! 🙂
Those varying shades of purple are so pretty!
It is – so bold. 🙂
