SLIPPER ORCHID

I couldn't resist the temptation and eventually bought this Slipper Orchid at the SGF 10.

Please don't ask me what is the name because I don't really care. The flower dropped off 2 days ago. The slipper was so small that even my pet chihuahua Sandy's leg could not fit into it.

Of course, this is not the place I was going to plant it. It was just placed there for display. I am going to plant it in a terrarium to test and see how long or well it can grow under those conditions.
