Bringing Orchids Home.

Kakdah went home recently to visit her mother with Yeop, the second eldest. Yeop drove all the way since he was in semester break and very free. It was a 5 hour drive. She came back with pots of orchids her mother passed over to her..... Nothing fancy, just ordinary ones. Some are hanged up, some are just placed on the porch floor, some are squeezed into pots.

We really have to look for more proper pots to keep these orchids.

very ordinary orchid
I wish I knew the name, but we have grown these before,
and the yellow flowers are really simple.
They will never grow taller than this.

Back home, they call this orkid pasir or sand orchids
because these orchids thrive on sandy soil.
The leaves look like coming
from a palm tree.
