Unfortunately the pictures I took of the single remaining Ophrys sphegodes flowering on a very short flower stalk (so that it did not appear to be flowering at all) were accidentally deleted. I also deleted the decent pictures of the A. laxifolia plant I have, but this is still in bloom - must remember to take some more soon.
The Ophrys has dried up nicely so I uprooted it gently:
It appears to have a good looking tuber, and I will seal it up with the pot in a ziplock bag. I am not sure whether the leaves and stem should be seperated, I assume not, and I am not certain about whether to add water to the pot before sealing it - I will seek some advice before I continue.
