Description
Description
The flowers of this garden orchid, with a delicate lavender pink color, measure between 2 and 3 cm and are distinguished by their sharp petals, which seem to delicately wrap themselves up as if they wanted to hide from the world, creating an image of shy beauty. The flowering is delicate and suggestive, while the leaves, slender and sinuous, with their vibrant green shade and folded shape, they add a touch of discreet elegance to any environment.
