Day 3 (Wednesday, April 10th): Small Yellow Orchids

These small yellow orchids are the most gorgeous thing to have in your garden. So bright and cheerful. They made your days more colorful.

Here's my poem for this exotic yellow flowers that has been held in high regard since ancient times. It symbolizes Love, Beauty, Fertility, Refinement, Thoughtfulness and Charm.

Yellow Orchids in Sunlight

Hello! she said in her yellow smile
Wrapped in her yellow scarf
She wore her yellow dress,
And she dances to the wind
The wind caresses her body
She surrenders to the sunlight
Beaming with pleasure
And Orchid whispers to me...
"Hey, we are one with the sunlight!”

What Does the Orchid Flower Mean?
The orchid has been held in high regard since ancient times. It symbolizes Love, Beauty, Fertility, Refinement, Thoughtfulness and Charm.

Etymological Meaning of the Orchid Flower
Orchids (Orchidaceae family) earned their name from the Greek word orchis, meaning testicle. Their fleshy underground tubers were thought to resemble testicles, at least that’s what Greek botanist Theophrastos thought at the time.

The Orchid Flower Facts
Orchid plants and flowers range in size and shape. Many grow in the understory of tropical forests, producing delicate blooms in a wide array of colors. While some are tiny plants, only a few inches tall, others like the Vanilla orchid grow on towering vines. The Vanilla orchid is native to Mesoamerica where the Totonaco Indians cultivated it. According to ancient Totonaco legend, the vanilla orchid sprung from the blood of Princess Xanat when she and her lover were beheaded for disobeying her father’s wishes. Although the Chinese have cultivated orchids for over 3,000 years, it was not until the 1600s that visitors to the Far East brought orchids to Europe. By 1802 orchids were raised from seed and by 1856, the first cultivated hybrid was developed. Source
