Went to a chinese temple near Bangsaen, saw this lovely lotus.

Another one is Jasmin in HH.

Lavender from this summer, I love to make it dried and put in a small bag anywhere, background is my new hobby, water color painting. giggle.gif

Nice to see you back Kathy! thumbsup.gif

Here is a Lady slipper orchid, seen on a trail in one of the National parks near Trang ... Never seen before or since!

The ants give an idea of its size!

Just saw these suddenly popped up in our front yard. Believe orchids? I know we have a lot of orchid plants around but seem to be slow in blooming. Three large groups of them together.

Love all kind of Orchids, it's thanksful flower and dont need much taking care. Here I have 5 or 6 Orchids, often forgot to spray water but at the end, giving me new buds and lovely flowers for more than 3 months, especially in Winter....what a wonderful to see...once in a while, 3 or 4 months I shall put in a water to soak it, then u dont need to worry much, as roots living from air and humidity...ha ha ha...

Beautiful floral images. Perhaps you will share some of your new hobby on TV as well!

Thanks Fiddlesticks, for new hobby I've just begun for 5 months by myself, learning here and there from Internet, but it's very difficult to paint. It was really funny, I've never paid any interest on drawing or painting anything, last drawing was on primary school, mangoes or orange did not remember well. But this summer , a friend of mine, she said she will open a beginner course for Aquarelle painting, so I would love to join, then I bought all the things, color, brush, etc...few days before she said due to too little ppl to join , so she quitted the course....I was little upset,blink.png so I made selfmade course...from Internet....my gosh...they did not show me the technique...so I went lost and blind and trying to find out , what I like the mostw00t.gif ....so I've been trying everything to paint...from animals, to pop art...love bright color....but flowers or landscape are not my favarite.....mine are portrait in pop art, etc. If I show on this TV, some ppl might know who I am...giggle.gif

Just wondering if any of you guys or gals have come across this plant / flower in your travels around the back country of various parts of Thailand?

This and another was found blooming, on Samui a few months ago...

IMG_4015.JPG

I believe it is Arum, which has "cousins" in Indonesia, that only bloom every five to seven years....

It smells, much the same as Raffleasia. to attract flies, and only lasts a few days!

IMG_4016.JPG

In September it started to shot new growth... quite a distinctive pattern on stem

SAM_0728.JPG

Here is a plant in the wild, not that uncommon... on Samui or KP .... (Auguid varified that for me, about KP) thumbsup.gif

IMG_7036.JPG

Here is the potted one, a few weeks ago, now about 6 feet (2 metres) ....foliage at top fully open!

IMG_7170.CR2.jpg

Anyone spotted this in other areas of Thailand, more for my curiosity than any other reason! wai.gif
