Fringed orchid (Habenaria radiata)



The rainy season is now finishing, and hot and humid summer is around the corner. The first flower of fringed orchid (Habenaria radiata cv) this season has bloomed in my grow space after raining a lot yesterday. 








This is a cultivated variety called 'Akebono', whose leaves are variegated.  Akebono means 'dawn' in Japanese.








A different type of fringed orchid with normal leaves. They are about to bloom.
