I would suggest that you visit Taipei floral exhibition . I had never like orchid but the one exhibited in taiwan are simply amazing in term of its size and colour. I believe the orchid are genetically modified as the are different like the orchid that i used to see before

That's quite a long wait, Pak Idrus. But it's worth it. You finally got to see the beautiful blooms again. The orchid's color is really lovely. Do you know its name?

Assalamualaikum Pak Idrus,

Your orchid looks beautiful. I remember my mum used to plant a few, her treasured "property" ~ she'd brought them whenever my father got transferred to new places. Only now that she doesn't have the opportunity to do much gardening.

By coincident, I'd just gone to Orchid Garden on Saturday and managed to capture a few and posted in my blog. :-)

Well unlike you I love Orchid especially if you grow it yourself. In Orchid it is not just the flower that would made you happy. It is looking at the whole process of growing and then see the result in such a beautiful flowers. The first roots, the first new leaves and then the first bud would give you the satisfaction that you have done well in the process of growing a good flowering plants.

The last time this Orchid bloom was six years ago and the wait was worthwhile.

Have a nice day.

I am sorry I do not know the name of that Orchid but someone on FaceBook say it is of the Cattleya family.
