Tall tails - Phragmipedium humboldtii

[cpmaniac]

I had to take this out of the greenhouse to get a decent picture. Certainly not a clean composition, but the size of the plant and strong wind gusts made things a bit difficult.
Many thanks to my wife, Lisa, who held onto the background!





Cheers,
