The Jewel Orchid

I had some doubts as to how long this "jewel" will survive as it is known to require certain very particular growing conditions. However, it does seem that the plant is doing very well on the roof garden.

Wrightia Religiosa - June 2012


9 June 2012: Bought these Wrightia Religiosa from Eden back in December 2010. They didn't take well to the afternoon sun at the back patio but have since taken on new colors on the side planter, which only receives the morning sun.
