Most desirered destination for orchids
:waving I was asked by a friend today if I had a choice to go anywhere in the world to see orchids (wild or not). where would it be? Well I had to think for a long time and finally decided that I would like to visit Thailand. From what I have seen with the greenhouse there and all they look spectacular. ;)
How about you? |
Cool thread, Dave.
Japan and Korea for me, no doubt about it. Too bad I wouldn't be able to take anything back with me though.:_( |
Since I love vandas most I would probably choose Thailand as my first choice but I'd cheat and choose a few more places.

You can bring orchids back if you do the paperwork ahead of time. I just went to Vietnam, and saw some orchids, but I wasn't really in the best area of the country for orchids, so I'd like to go back and specifically look for orchids. |
Japan and Brazil for sure! :biggrin:
I would love to travel brazil looking for orchids in the wild. |
Def cool thread!
I've always really wanted to go to Indonesia, travel around Java and Bali. Looking for wild orchids there would be a fantastic bonus! |
Ummm...:dunno: I would not be able to pick just one spot...but if I did it would be Costa-Thai. :biggrin:
Costa Rica has some beautiful forest preserves that I've read about...and Thailand has the vandaceous gems that are my favorites...so, Costa-Thai...or Thai-Rica would be my choice. :evil: |
No no. I would not go any where with you guys,:nana:
Me, I would LOVE LOVE to go to the Cloud Forests of Colombia, Ecuador and Peru, maybe with a side trip to Venezuelan and Panamanian and Costa Rican Cloud Forests. My Second choice. Hengduan Mountains in the southeast of China where Tibet, Sichuan and Yunnan meet. This is the most biodiverse place for temperate flowering plants, ANYWHERE!!!!! All them exotic plants people grow in their gardens in temperate zones come from here, and all the natives we have, have cousins growing over there. :drool:!!! The only reason its my second choice is cause its so far away. |
Hmmm. That is a difficult choice. I love cattleyas, so probably I would choose Brazil.
|
if i ever could swing it; i would like to take a canoe trip up the amazone and the rio negro, just like the old orchid hunters used to do.
it,s been a dream of me for a long long time. |
