Anguloa Orchids or Cradle Orchids,LR9A1484-B&W

            Anguloa orchid plants, otherwise known as tulip orchids or cradle orchids, are usually seen thriving in the forest floors of the high Andean regions of Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Bolivia, and Peru. Given that their natural habitat is in the Andes Mountains, which has an elevation anywhere from 1800 to 2500 meters, the general assumption is that these orchids are expected to grow better in a cooler environment, compared to a hotter one. Anguloa orchids can be a bit hard to come by, depending on where you live. 
I have shot these rare orchids in San Francisco, CA .Conservatory of Flowers.
