FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

Hi,
I'm busy last time and don't have enough time for the forums, but today I've less to do and I decided to pay you a visit:) One of my hobbies is photography, and my favourite subject is to photograph plants in their natural habitat. And, it's hard to find more spectacular ones than orchids:) Here are some photos from my photostream on flickr.com


This one is slightly more rare than the other orchids here. I was working to preserve the place were the specimens from the photo were growing, but I failed to. There's a rubbish tip there now.

Wow, they look amazing! Next to CPs, Orchids are my fave!
Thanks for posting!

Thanks for sharing Moof! Like hb, orchids are my favorite plants after CPs.

Sweet!

How do they eat insects? I looked everywhere and there aren't any answers..

Dude, Orchids don't "eat" insects.

That made me giggle. Orchids are just cool plants, Kenny. They're under the Non-Carnivorous discussion forum because they're non-carnivorous. They don't eat insects.

Yes, that's true. But some of them actually catch insects for pollination, and release them back after a few hours or days.
