One of the things I learned living on my hill is that nature is never the
same, every day of the year it’s a little bit different, not one year is the
same and it’s certainly never boring.
I remember seeing the wild orchids for the first time, now almost 12 years
ago, and wondering how it was possible I didn’t know that there were wild
orchids growing everywhere in Italy. To me this seemed like a huge thing. I
mean … how many of you love orchids and wouldn’t you enjoy seeing them
everywhere around you? And did you know they exist here in Italy?
They start growing early spring and there are several varieties we can
admire until June. This year it seems they are doing their best to ease our
worries about the virus and coming out extra early.
I’m very bad with memorizing their names, but every year I enjoy making
pictures of them during my morning walks. These days I’m even more grateful for
their presence !
