Grammatophyllum speciosum, World largest orchid

[Vanda lover]

Wouldn't it be nice to have all that warmth and sunshine? My orchids would love it! Especially the vandas. We have it quite a bit warmer than Silken, but we hardly see the sun during the winter.

Very nice photos!

I recently saw a series of pictures with someone who was working with the seed pods of this species and they were ENORMOUS! Makes sense because of the size of the plants.

Wow that is a beautiful plant. I too would love to see something like that in the landscaping.

I've always wanted one if these in my yard.

Wonderful place where an orchid on the road makes the news. I love it!!!
Great orchid too. Just gorgeous.

I would like to acquire one immediately.....where would I find it? I'm in way far South Florida; I think it would do well here. I have a thing for monster orchids! The Median Gramm is truly spectacular.
