Default Not Exactly Orchids

Well they are not orchids but very pretty just the same and growing all over my bedding areas outside. I haven't a clue as to their ID....yes, some kind of wildflower but anyone hazard a guess as to what they are??????

First ones (the yellow buggers) are Yellow Trout Lily. The second ones (the blue guys) I don't know. Perhaps they are some sort of planted bulb?

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

I am not able to see the pictures.
It shows that the image had either been moved
or deleted by 'photobucket'.

In that case, would you mind terribly if I delete this thread?
