Moth Orchid

The generic name means "Phalaenopsis" and is probably a reference to the genus Phalaena, the name given by Carolus Linnaeus to a group of large moths; the flowers of some species supposedly resemble moths in flight. For this reason, the species are sometimes called Moth orchids.

They are native throughout Southeast Asia from the Himalayan Mountains to the islands of Polillo and Palawan of the Philippines and northern Australia. Orchid Island off Taiwan is named after this orchid. Little is known about their habitat and their ecology in nature since little field research has been done in the last decades.

Most are epiphytic shade plants; a few are lithophytes. In the wild they are typically found below the canopies of moist and humid lowland forests, protected against direct sunlight, but equally in seasonally dry or cool environments. The species have adapted individually to these three habitats.

Phalaenopsis Crystelle




Phalaenopsis crystelle




Phalaenopsis shows a monopodial growth habit. An erect growing rhizome produces from the top one or two alternate, thick and fleshy, elliptical leaves a year. The older, basal leaves drop off at the same rate. The plant retains in this way four to five leaves. If very healthy, they can have up to ten or more leaves. They have no pseudobulbs. The raceme appears from the stem between the leaves. They bloom in their full glory for several weeks. If kept in the home, they usually last two to three months.






Amaryllis


Many tropical and subtropical bulbs thrive in Florida and amaryllis is a favorite among gardeners. Amaryllis bulbs are mainly from North America, Holland and South Africa.



Single and double flowers are available in bold colors of red, bright pink and orange. Other cultivars produce blooms in subdued shades of pink, rose and salmon as well as pure white. Still others are spectacularly striped and multi-colored. Two or more large trumpet-shaped flowers appear in spring on leafless, 2- to 3-foot-tall stalks. The strap-shaped leaves are 5cm-7cm in wide and 40cm-60cm long.



I own almost 10 types of Amaryllis now for collection and sell.






Of all flowering bulbs, amaryllis are the easiest to bring to bloom. This can be accomplished indoors or out, and over an extended period of time. Each flower bloom is 10cm-20cm in diameter and this make it famoust flower all over the world.
