Ghost Orchid

Orlando, FL(Zone 9b)

For all you orchid enthusiasts, here's a gorgeous orchid that's very rare in the US. It's only found in south FL in the Fakahatchee Strand area. Most of the year it's just a bunch of roots on a tree trunk. When it blooms, it's stunning. Check this out: http://www.uhaul.com/supergraphics/orchid/natural-wonder.html

The book "The Orchid Thief" was written about this plant. Scientific name is Polyrrhiza lindenii.

Is the movie out in general cinemas? This doesn't sound familiar to me. Course I've been on vacation in the Everglades for a week with my family, so not much is sounding familiar to me right now. Still getting my schedule back in line!

Yes, it is playing now.
