  8. You have orchids in your garden?
    Yes, hopefully it will stand the cold! Maybe it's a special "hardy winter-orchid"??

  9. It's in a pot just outside my terrace. The petals that were frozen have turned black but the rest of the flower seems fine, fingers crossed. There are several buds - another orchid too - and those also seem OK.

  11. We only have rain and grey skies, no snow no ice, and a French friend in Bordeaux, misses "the rugby weather" here. It is a Winter beauty of an image, and lovely to see yet another familiar blogger posting.
