The bee orchids are back!

These plants are remarkable in that they successfully reproduce through pseudocopulation, that is, their flowers mimic female insects to such a degree that amorous males are fooled into mating with the flowers, thereby pollinating them.

The Alchemy Garden is a nature sanctuary set deep within the French countryside of the Tarn-et-Garonne in S W France.
It attracts nature lovers from all over the world: artists, writers, walkers and those involved in the healing arts.
It is a loving and joyful place that inspires creativity and inspiration.
You can come on retreat here or come on one of our themed holidays: http://themedholidayideas.com/?page_id=7039
