HELP ORQUIDARIUM MADEIRA FOUNDATION

WILDFIRES set by criminal action in Funchal, Madeira in August 2016 destroyed well over 100 properties with all their belongings.

One of these properties was the beautiful strong>ORQUIDARIUM MADEIRA which was completely eaten up by the flames. Please, go to their pages and share their story in order to take action to help the strong>ORQUIDARIUM re-start their important work in research and nature preservation.

Thank you!

A DONATION of an euro or an orchid plant may help this strong>ORQUIDARIUM rise from the ashes and became what it was , continuing with it’s legacy / work in Orchid investigation and preservation. Once again THANK YOU 🙂

Snowy Madeira, February 2016

Very seldom, we get snow in Madeira. For the past week , we have had some snow on our highest mountains, a very different and unusual vision of Madeira. Yet it continues sunny and warm in Funchal, on the south coast. Each one of us may enjoy the white mountains and warm Winter in Madeira.
