Chiloschista Parishii 'Kanchanaburi'
Chiloschista Parishii 'Kanchanaburi' is a fascinating and unique orchid species native to Thailand, particularly the Kanchanaburi province. It is a leafless orchid, meaning it lacks true leaves and relies on its photosynthetic roots for energy production. This orchid is known for its delicate, fragrant flowers and its unusual growth habit.
Characteristics:
- Growth Habit: Lithophytic (grows on rocks) or epiphytic (grows on trees). The plant has a small, creeping stem and numerous green, flattened roots that cling to the surface it's growing on. These roots are responsible for photosynthesis.
- Leaves: Absent or rudimentary, sometimes producing a few tiny, short-lived leaves during the growing season.
- Flowers: The inflorescence arises from the base of the plant and bears numerous small, delicate flowers. The flowers are typically white or cream-colored with a yellow center and often have a sweet, honey-like fragrance.
