Beautiful ..

Orchids are very special to many people,
my wife included. I plan to post one
that my wife took in her homeland of
the Philippines. It is a big one that
is growing in a tree. Best wishes, Anya!

Re: Beautiful ..

I'm looking forward to see your wife's photo.
For a long time I didn't realize that these were actually orchids. I didn't expect to see such flowers in the desert. Greetings!

Re: Beautiful ..

Orchids grow in all continents except
Antarctica. There are some 30,000 species
worldwide. I'm trying to find out what
species (out of the 30,000) my wife's is!
This could take some time. - Larry

Re: Beautiful ..

I can empathize with this type of research. Good luck on that Larry.
