A rare orchid that looks like a naked man has been found at St John’s College.
The Orchis Simia is known as the "Naked Hanging Man Orchid" and more commonly as the "Monkey Orchid" because of its resemblance to a naked male or a monkey.
The orchid is one of the rarest native orchids in the UK and delighted gardeners at St John’s College when a single flowering specimen was spotted in an area of grass that has been left unmown to encourage biodiversity and wildlife.
Deputy Head Gardener David Brown has said he is "ecstatic" and described the discovery as "the find of a lifetime".
