Market Friday - Orchid Factory Part 5

Here's part 5 of the orchid factory for this #marketfriday by @dswigle

This orchid farm has around 9 acres worth of greenhouses with nice island displays showing mountains of blooming orchids.


Here's an Ascocenda Vanda, these orchids like to hang off branches in the wild and don't need soil.

Here's a purple one that was my favorite of the Vanda orchid colors.


This is another Vanda orchid nicknamed red berry by the grower.

This picture shows how the Vanda orchids like to grow. They are like a massive air plant.


Here's a tiny bold little orchid with a long latin name, I like the shorter Haupia nickname better lol.


This bold gold orchid is nicknamed a Nugget Digger.


This golden orchid looks similar to the Nugget Digger but it has a larger bloom with subtle color variations. This one is nicknamed Bit-O-Sunshine.


This bright violet orchid is a Potinara Triple Love #1. Who knows how the grower came up with this name...


This bold patterned little orchid is a Zygopetalum. They have a citrus sort of fragrance to them.




Now for a prehistoric dinosaur looking orchid @kaminchan . This bulbophyllum purpureorachis is too hard to spell for even the grower lol. This orchid doesn't look like a flower at all, more like a seed pod that a dinosaur would be munching on.

Well that's it for this #marketfriday
