HAIRY SLIPPER

A friend gave me two Slipper Orchid cut flowers last week.
They're so pretty.  Rhonda P has had the plant for thirty years and it is in an old wash tub 'just in the back garden'.  I must admit Rhonda is a very good gardener.

I decided to take some macro shots of the petals and, of course, more was revealed with tiny, tiny hairs on the edge of the petals.
A photo of the two blooms is in extras.
Thanks, Suzanne (osuzanna) for hosting the challenge.

Thanks for your comments and gifts for the frilled neck lizard and squares yesterday.
