Couldn’t believe when I seen these #orchids on the @rtenews as I nearly mowed one in my garden yesterday. It’s taken a while for me to get the grass cut following #NoMowMay what a beauty!
Rare orchids have popped up as a result of #NoMowMay - you can spot these beautiful flowers as you walk under front arch and look to the left. Thanks to @JaneCStout and the @PollinatorPlan for bringing this initiative to Trinity!
