"Look into my eyes..."
"Deep into the heart of me..."

Found a huge pot of these cool orchids
Which were gifted to someone I know
I'm guessing this is a Yellow Phalaenopsis orchid
(Orchid experts, feel free to correct me...)
They are most attractive because of the dark red veins running throughout the bright yellow petals, unlike some other striped species which have them only on a part of the petals or fading outwards or inwards

That is just one...
Have a look below at how a few (a section of the pot) looks like!

Most attractive, aren't they?

Orchids are supposed to be one of the most highly coveted ornamentals, and are said to symbolise love, luxury, beauty and strength!
Ancient Greeks associated them with virility!
I wonder why...
