I just love to see the beauty of my Orchids every time they start to bloom. I always keep on waiting for these plants until it totally spread its lovely and attractive flowers. I started collecting this Orchids during my College years. I use to visit Lingayen Plaza every Saturday morning and look for some cheap and young orchids. Until I got addicted to it, and I began finding some varieties of its kind that produces different style and color.
Majority of this orchids can be found growing anchored to trees and shrubs in tropical and Subtropical regions. While others grown on rocks or on very rocky soil.
Orchids can reproduce by pollination. Since orchids have developed highly specialized pollination system. This is why orchids remain for very long periods, and why these plants deliver pollen grains in a single mass. Which results to high success rate pollination, and thousands of ovules are fertilized.
Through the accumulation of growth hormones orchids also produce offshoots which grows from one of the nodes along the stem.
Taking care and propagating orchids is so easy and I really enjoy planting and propagating this orchids, and in return, these lovely flowering plants also enjoy producing attractive flowers for me.
