Taken at Centennial Park Conservatory
Dancing Lady Orchid
Botanical name: Oncidium
Most oncidium orchid species produce dozens of small flowers at the same time, giving a spectacular show that lasts for several weeks. The large-lipped flowers may be yellow, white, red, pink, green or brown.
The flowers vary greatly, but share one common feature: the large lower petal, called a lip, is always perpendicular to the side winged petals.
The distinctive shape of the blooms, carried on many-branched stems give oncidium orchid its common name: Dancing Lady Orchid. Oncidiums flutter in the breeze, making them "dance."
Have a beautiful new week everyone!!💝
Thank you for your visits, kind comments, invites, awards and faves. Always greatly appreciated.
