X is for X Doritaenopsis

X is for X Doritaenopsis
I got this orchid from my colleagues for my birthday some years ago. Now it blooms for the umpteenth time.
When I was looking for an image for x, I saw on the internet a close-up of this orchid. Be seen was the little bird and I wondered if one of my orchids also such a little bird had to guess. And so it was.
I was happy like a little kid and made photos myself. Then I researched the name of this orchid. It was a hybrid between Phalaenopsis "Golden Amboin" and Doritis "Taisuco Candystripe". In summary, these hybrids also called x Doritaenopsis.
They belong to the Moth Orchids because their flowers look like the wings of moths.
I wait to the bloom of my other orchids for checking for more surprises.

Das wirkt hypnotisch. Wie eine magische Figur und wirklich wie ein Vogelkopf. Diese Blüten haben mich schon immer fasziniert. Aber so habe ich das noch nicht gesehen. Und schöne Farbe. :-)

A very fine macro with wonderful perspective and colours!
There are not only little birds in the flower but also the masks of venetian carnival.

Cheers, Klaus
