Flower fest is back and this time the theme is purplicious. These are some orchid flowers from my mother’s garden. Over the last decade or so, orchids have grown to be quite popular among Kerala gardeners. This particular kind has palm like leaves and the flowers are at the end of long stalks. There are white and purple colours in her garden.
Scientific name: Spathoglottis Plicata
Sending this over for Flower Fest.
