Dendrobium

Posted by Joven Ivan (Olongapo City, Philippines) on 28 April 2007 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

According to a friend the flower name is Dendrobium but regardless of the name of the species it is still beautiful. But I still got curious what it means so I research a bit and I found out that Dendrobium is still a species of Orchids.

From Wikipedia:
Dendrobium Swartz is a large genus of tropical orchids that consists of about 1200 species. The genus occurs in diverse habitats throughout much of south, east and southeast Asia, including the Philippines, Borneo, Australia, New Guinea and New Zealand. The name is from the Greek dendron (meaning tree) and bios (meaning life).
