MORE IMPERIALS… ORCHIDS
MARCH—> month of HOPE, beauty and joy.
Blooms and buds, for hope and awakening.
Purple was the colour worn by Roman magistrates; it became the imperial colour worn by the rulers of the Byzantine Empire and the Holy Roman Empire, and later by Roman Catholic bishops.
Similarly in Japan, the color is traditionally associated with the Emperor and aristocracy.
Phalaenopsis Orchid, known as the Moth Orchid, abbreviated Phal in the horticultural trade, is an orchid genus of approximately 60 species.
Phalaenopsis is one of the most popular orchids in the trade, through the development of many artificial hybrids.
It is native to southern China, the Indian Subcontinent, Southeast Asia (Thailand, Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, etc.), New Guinea, the Bismarck Archipelago, and Queensland.
They bloom in their full glory for several weeks. If kept in the home, the flowers may last two to three months.
With love to you and thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)
