An Orchid For You!

Here is an orchid for you,
And if you should ask why,
The answer is simple,
I've no reason to lie.

A thing of great beauty,
I most willingly send,
To show that I'm thinking
Of my very dear friend!

Have a wonderful day my friend!

--some notes from these flowers
also called the Orchid family, is the largest family of the flowering plants (Angiospermae). Its name is derived from the genus Orchis.

The Royal Botanical Gardens of Kew list 880 genera and nearly 22,000 accepted species, but the exact number is unknown since classification differs greatly in the academic world. About 800 new species are added each year

Orchidaceae are cosmopolitan, occurring in almost every habitat apart from deserts and glaciers. The great majority are to be found in the tropics, mostly Asia, South America and Central America. They are found above the Arctic Circle, in southern Patagonia and even on Macquarie Island, close to Antarctica.

Hi Jessica - the original was a bit too soft, but this one is exquisite.
Lovely water colour in beautiful colours. A real work of art.
