Dark Red Helleborines were just about hanging on at Bishop Middleham Quarry on the 28th July #orchids #wildflowerhour #darkredhelleborine @durhamwildlife.bsky.social @ukorchids.bsky.social @bsbibotany.bsky.social @europeanorchids.bsky.social @wildflowerhour.bsky.social

#DarkRedHelleborine and #MarshHelleborine @rspb.bsky.social #Hodbarrow #Cumbria last week. A wonderful nature reserve probably best known for its tern colony, but it is also a much underrated botanical gem. #HelleborineChallenge #wildflowerhour

Finally got out for a few snaps. Found this very rare #orchid in my neck of the woods. #darkredhelleborine #Epipactisatrorubens
