Ox-eye daisies backlit by the sun near St Goustan …..
and purple orchids among the buttercups in damp, hay meadows on Belle Île.
The individual flowers are widely spaced along the tall spikes of Anacamptis laxiflora, earning the species he name of loose flowered orchid or orchis à fleurs lâches in French. It’s a rather mundane name for such an eye-catching flower.
