| | | Musk Orchid and some others ... After my faux pas with the Twayblade  I think I may have got the Musk Orchid this time - possibly  Apologies for the quality of the pictures 
And it did smell very sweet
I think this one has to be the white form of a Green Winged Orchid - it's the only one this white in my book
Pyramidal Orchid
Common spotted Orchid
and I wondered whether this one could be a Chalk Fragrant Orchid?
Thanks for looking |

| | Re: Musk Orchid and some others ... Definitely Musk Orchids this time!
Not sure about the albino, but flower structure doesn't look like Green-winged to me, which should be over now anyway. |

| | | Re: Musk Orchid and some others ... I thought the green winged looked more like early purple in white form but i could be wrong.
