Description

I am currently living in New Hampshire, USA. The American Orchid Society (AOS), is about 2 miles from where I lived in Florida. While I'm waiting for the rain to stop in NH, you are going to have to put up with some more AOS photos. They have greenhouses for the orchids but also have outside gardens. This is a Chenille Plant, native to Malaysia. The red "flowers" average about 10 inches or 25cm. Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous comments & favs. Dana

Like Katraz, any plants will do for me! It must seem strange making a big climate move!
