Hawaiian Orchid
Orchid from Luau, a lovely purple lei. I wore a lei when I visited Maui. The humidity and heat versus the coolness of the flowers around my neck felt delicious.

Heart of an Orchid
It's an amazing thing, the inside of a flower. This one looks like the back of a throat. I'm intrigued how in nature there are so many things that look humanly physical in nature. I have several orchids among my house plants. Unfortunately, the orchids seldom bloom. I've heard that orchids need heat and humidity. I'm reminded of getting off the plane in Hawaii and how the humidity hit me in the face. And the fragrance, tropical, delicious. I can see why it makes orchids flourish.
