Various photos taken of orchids in Bali October 2012.
The first batch were taken at Bali Adventure Tours Elephant Park near Ubud. The second at the Orchid Garden about 10 kms north of Sanur.
No labels for these as orchids are by no means my area of expertise. Some are recognisable as the type you can find in many garden centres and interior design magazine articles around the world. Some I have never seen before.
Enjoy!
Vanda coerulea 'Sansai Blue' - one of 2 contenders for the Blue Orchid apparently
The fairly familiar phalaenopsis orchid......found in many a cool temperate living room
Oncidium cebolletta
Two plants for damp shade - the one on the left is spathiphyllum and on the right eucharis grandiflora (eucharist lily, not dis-similiar to the swamp lily - crinum penduculatum) but with pendant flowers.
Unidentified aquatic plant - any ideas?
Close up of flower
Asplenium nidus ? Bird's nest fern
One plant I did recognise - actually a type of passion flower - passiflora coccinea.
All of the above orchids were growing in the shade....whereas many of those at the Orchid Garden in Sanur were, to my surprise, in full sun.
See below.
