Pink Fairy Orchids donated to Borthwick Park

At our Gilberton Open Day on Saturday 28th August 2016, Andrew from the Kensington Residents Association, accepted our donation of a clump of Pink Fairies orchids to be transplanted to Borthwick Park, to help with their reintroduction of the Pink Fairies there.

We were glad to help, and hope the extra additions of the correct symbiotic soil fungi  (including some bark, which seems to feed the fungus) will also encourage new orchids seedlings from the seed they scattered earlier this year.
