Flower country - Orchids

Orchids
Orchids are growing everywhere in Northern Thailand. There are many orchids farms, parks, and botanical gardens. I made hundreds of photographs with orchids.

A Danish biologist visiting Thailand at the beginning of the 20th century described over 400 species of the orchard family.


In the majority of cases, orchids do not grow in soil. They grow on the branches of trees but do not parasite trees. They use the tree as support. Their roots are hanging free from the trees. The roots have a white color. You can see roots in the first seven photographs.
