Vandas,
Phalaenopsis, Calanthes, Cattlyeas, Ascocendas and Dendrobiums,
just to name a few, can be found throughout. Vandas and Ascocendas,
'rain forest' orchids, are displayed in an environment meant to
be a simulation of the condition in which they would grow in the
rain forest. This simulation is an eye-catching display, as they
seem to hang in mid-air with the orchids' roots completely free
of soil.
The
accompanying sound of burbling water not only adds moisture to the
air but also adds a feeling of tranquility to the already peaceful
atmosphere. The only other sound you may hear is the wind rustling
through the nearby sugar cane or the twitter of the birds. The lingering
scent of an orchid is just as likely to enchant as the colours and
shapes of the flowers.
