About This Image

Mirrored reflection of some Phalaenopsis Orchids, taken
looking through the magnification side of the mirror.

Flamboyant, exotic, even seductive, the orchid is prized for it unusual flowers. Its aura of mystique and many popular misconceptions may have discouraged gardeners from growing thse beautiful plants, but their cultivation is not always difficult and some will thrive happily indoors as house plants.
I was most surprised to lean that there are about 750 genera and 17,500 species together with an even greater number of hybrids.

Please Enjoy:)
