Florida's Rare Ghost Orchids Are Getting Cut Off From Water |
THE GHOST ORCHID is an unusual, and unusually beautiful, flower found only in Cuba and the flooded forests of South Florida, where there are about 2,000 of the plants. This species, which draws its moisture from the air, has no leaves. Rather, its green stems cling like bits of linguine to trees, anchoring it to its host. |
