Eternal Reassurance

Taken at Rockefeller Park Greenhouse- Cleveland OH

After visiting the Botanical Garden for Orchid Mania, I stopped by the Greenhouse because they always have something interesting on display year-round, including some orchids of their own. They're tucked away usually in a small room filled with mini pomegranate trees, and the place is always quiet because not a lot of people come there or even know about it.

I'm still an idiot when it comes to knowing what sort of orchid this is, but the inside petals remind me a little of a rose from the angle that I shot it. The vast diversity of types of orchids means that you can always be amazed by the different colors, shapes and even scents of these beautiful flowers. With around 25,000 species known, they are one of the largest families of flowering plants, assuring that you will always find something new and beautiful to appreciate each year.
