May 6th, 2013: Jewel Orchid (Macodes petola) by Kell
Great shot of a super cool plant!!
Yes! Is that your plant Kell?
I think that was taken at the San Francisco Flower and Garden Show. David, I bought a small one and killed it awhile later.
The leaves have an iridescence to them that makes this plant even more attractive with a huge come hither look.
Thanks Greta.
Wonderful photo of a stunning plant!
You may have boughten & killed, but I'd like to find one. Glad you took the picture.
