Flower of the Day – July 17, 2015 – Orchid | cocoaevenings

Finally, I am posting the photo of an orchid! I love orchids because it reminds me of homeland, Singapore. I also love orchids because they always look like beautiful ladies dancing elegantly in the wind.

This flower below sure looks like a beautiful lady. I am not sure what the species is, but I like this shade of pink.

Cocoa’s notes: The national flower of Singapore is Vanda Miss Joaquim, a species of orchid. And Singapore has a sprawling 74 hectares Orchid Garden, with Orchid Breeding & Conservation Biotechnology Laboratory.

Do you take a liking to flowers of your favourite colour? Or do you like certain flowers because of their structure?

Enjoy!
