It's a once a year affair, so when I was nearby for an appointment, I had to pop over here to look at all those beautiful flowers. So many bonsais as seen in this collage and those shown here are extremely expensive.
So many species of flowers but I fell in love with all those gorgeous and magnificent orchids. Here they are ---- an overdose of orchids, can you find a favourite?
Cheers :)

ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful pictures..They are all beautiful. The last one looks a little like our, Jack in the Pulpit..I do think it is from the orchid family.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it amazing how many orchids there are and each with their own beauty..the ones that look a little like spiders, are very interesting..Good blog as usual..

ReplyDeleteOh, my goodness... I've gone to heaven look at this surely, orchid heaven?!! You know how much I LOVE orchids, M.Kate so I am just thrilling over each of these photos. I can only imagine what it must have been like to be surround by all those beauties... Breathtaking... *SWOON*... I have seen some wild ones once, and they are magical, however I do love these now cultivated for home/garden. I have orchids just now, but trying to find a better place that has greater variety of plants. Hubby & I just got back from our trip... we had a marvelous time visiting two seaside towns and enjoying some sea, sun and outings! There will be blog posts for sure this week, and lots of photos! Taking a moment with tea to check in with family & friends... I feel like we were in a cozy bubble all our own removed from the larger world for two days... LOL! Happy Days, my friend :o) ((HUGS))

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness absolutely gorgeous
ReplyDeletefantastic photos I remember when we went to Malaysia that they had a beautiful orchid garden in Kuala Lumpur. We loved it.
M.Kate, it is because you popped over there that we get to see such gorgeous orchids on display. The second orchid picture really capture my attention. It looks as though an artist has painted some white shades on its petals which makes it so special. Such explicit gems!
ReplyDeleteYou take the most amazing flower photos M! Some really interesting specimans too!!
ReplyDeleteCan I choose just one? NO! They're all so beautiful!
ReplyDeletethe colours in your photos are just stunning! They remind me of when we viited an orchid farm in Thailand and we didn't know where to look first as everything was beautiful

O my!! They are the most beautiful flowers I've ever seen! The bonsai are lovely, too...but the orchids win! They have so much detail to them ..the striping, spots and color blending. Once again..thanks for sharing these rare beauties!!

ReplyDeleteI would have a very hard time choosing a favorite orchid, M Kate...they are all lovely! I have no luck growing them so I have to admire them from afar.
