FOMOS MONTHLY ORCHID SHOW

The show was held at Penang Botanical Garden on the 14th of October 2012. Here are some of the orchids  in that show.

Orchid on my Birthday

Yesterday was my birthday.  Usually I dont bother to celebrate it. But this year I went to Kb Holticulture. This nursery located at Kaki Bukit Perlis near to the famous Gua Kelam and Wang Kelian. After walking , looking and searcing around the orchids, I finally choose 3 plants as gifts to myself on my birthday.

This is a dendrobium hybrid that I bought. The colour is so vibrant and the size of the flower is so big. 

And my love for Phalaenopsis will never end.

Dendro that still alive in my garden

Native to Southeast Asia, the genus dendrobium is one of the largest of all orchid groups. There are about 1,200 individual species, and they grow in all manner of climates, from hot, wet lowlands to high-altitude, colder mountains. All dendrobiums are epiphytes. Some are deciduous and some hold onto their leaves all year round. Serious collectors often favor the D. nobile, but the most common kind of dendrobium—the kind gracing grocery store shelves—is a hybrid dendrobium phalaenopsis.
