Ophrys iricolor (Orchidaceae)

Archanes, Crete. Mar 29, 2023

  1. Easily one of the prettiest members of the (often quite boring) Ophrys fusca group. Besides its beautiful blue speculum, it is notable for the red underside of its lip.
    I'm not very good at taking flower photos with this little point and shoot, but occasionally the flash does wonders :)
