Arpopyllum Orchids seem up close.

Arpopyllum Orchids seem up close.

Arpophyllum giganteum, native of a wide range extending from Venezuela to Mexico and also the West Indies. This pink member of the orchid family has a central blossom stem covered in rows of small flowers. These orchids were seen in the US Botanical Garden. Since I had a macro lens I got a very close shot. The details of this small orchid are amazing.
Shot with a Nikon D80 and a 55mm Micro Nikkor AIS macro lens.
