Monkey Orchids

Mistakenly referred to as “Monkey Orchids,” none of the above species are in the Orchis simia family which is the genus for the monkey orchid.

Beautiful Allura Anthurium. The lipstick-red, heart-shaped flower spaths on anthurium make a fun and flashy #Mother’sDay gift. Commonly called flamingo flower, each sumptuous bloom lasts up to 6 weeks. You often see anthurium flowers in upscale tropical cut-flower arrangements because they’re so exotic. Our anthurium grows in a beautiful white ceramic pot and is available in the garden center of your local home improvement store and mass merchandiser. See more here.

Happy Mother’s Day!

The green roof has approximately eight inches of soil and absorbs rainwater runoff. (via Peek Inside 8 Of The World’s Greenest Homes )

The rainwater runoff is one of the biggest benefits of green roofs; the soil filters and cleans the water, leaving less for the city’s water treatment plants to have to deal with
