Orchids have quickly become one of my favourite plants, so it was to my delight that i found the Orchid House at Kew Gardens!

We've had really good luck this year with getting our orchids to flower :)

Orchids

my mother in law grows orchids

The orchid brings a universal message of beauty, elegance and sensuality. A pink orchid conveys pure affection.

To the ancient Greeks, orchids suggested virility, and after the rise in popularity of orchid plant collections in Victorian England, the meaning of orchids moved towards being symbolic of luxury. Orchids have also been believed to carry various healing and protective properties, allowing them to ward off disease. The Aztecs were said to drink a mixture of the Vanilla orchid and chocolate to give them power and strength, and the Chinese believe orchids can help cure lung illnesses and coughs.

Thanks to Una Cierta Mirada for the beautiful texture.

A big thank-you to PietervH for letting us know this is a Disa uniflora orchid (native to South Africa).
