Botany picture #158: Serapias vomeracea


Still a bit jetlagged and having immediately jumped back into work I find it hard to write something longer at the moment. But of course I have taken dozens of plant photographs on our trip to Europe, and so here is the next botany picture. Serapias vomeracea (Orchidaceae), France, 2014. Not much I can tell you about this plant as such, but we saw many, many orchids in south-western France and I will surely post more of them. This one I like very much because of its rather unusual shape and colour scheme; not everything has to be pink and fragile-looking!
