Its name indicates that it comes from the mountains of central Brazil, where the Vellozias (shrubby monocots with woody stems) live, and that this orchid has a special relationship with those plants. After that, I left the orchidarium. They often organize special expositions with other associated orchidariums, but I always miss it. I will stay allert for the next ones. |
