These are really beautiful. Orchids have such a strange appearance. Taipei has a flower market and I would say that half of the flowers are orchids. It is a place to visit and buy.
I wish they were easier to grow but I just don’t have the patience. Still, I love to see them and this show was quite spectacular.
I know this is not what you want to read but a common small potted orchid in Taiwan is about $3. If I could have brought some back I would have.
Lovely photos. They helped lift me out of my winter doldrums!
Thanks! I can’t wait to see some signs of life out in the garden but it looks like the greenhouses are the best place to be right now.
‘fraid so!
Beautiful selection.
Thank you! The hardest part was trying to separate the flower from the background. My macro skills are not that great but I think I managed to do OK this time.
It’s so refreshing to see these photos in the dead of winter
Glad you liked them, Violet. We could certainly use some cheering up, with more snow falling on this grey day.
