Green flowers are always a little surprising. They blend in with the leaves, but then there’s a glimpse of color, or a distinctive flower shape, and a blossom emerges into view. Of course, the vast, diverse orchid family has plenty of green flowers. This post shows just a few. Bright green, light green, yellowish green — no matter the shade, they are spectacular.<\/p>\n

Some types are completely green; others include white, yellow, purple, red, or pink. I’ve seen many green Lady Slippers<\/a> and Cymbidiums<\/a>.

And there are a lot more.<\/p>\n
