Thanks a lto Muthu and Balkar sir. Its very strange, they are small but stay fresh for very long!!! I imagine what pollinates them. We dont allow them to be pollinated naturally. We at KFBG have a special arrangements to stop their pollination. WHY? Because we dont want non-native orchids at our garden to spread in wild. Regards Pankaj
