What kind of plant is this?

bringsmewomen · 07-29-2011, 02:16 PM

I saw this and wanted this for my home. Just wondering what it is so I can do more research?

Just looks like a type of green orchid in a glass vase.

Check out a nursery that carries a larger number of orchid varieties.

Just google image search "green orchid":

Be careful if you have cats or dogs... orchids are deadly for them if ingested.

Cool thanks. It looks like it's encased in a tubular vase with water 1/5 of the way up. Weird how it lives in water, not soil.

Elliott@DetailAddict · 07-29-2011, 02:22 PM

yea most orchids can be kept like that for a good while

You dont need soil.... you can buy suplements that you can add to water that have everything that plantneeds to live/grow

You can also add sea monkeys to add visual effect

"Make a modern statement with submerged green orchids! A simple glass cylinder and tropical ti leaves are the only additions to this minimal, Zen arrangement. Improve your feng shui with a stem of green cymbidium orchids and variegated ti leaves, submerged under water in a tall cylinder vase."

And OP, it's $100 bucks for a flower in a vase. Seriously?

Orchards need lots of sun. just FYI

I'm still confused on the narcissism.

Do people now-a-days have no self awareness?

It's a cymbidium orchid. They also come in yellow and white.

You can go to any florist and get a single branch. Use a knife or scissor and cut of the tip and submerge in water. You can even snap off the actual orchids and put them in smaller vases such as a square or petri dish to let them float. Add a small floating candle on top and light to attract women haha. Just kidding. Either way, they should last awhile (more so when still attached to the stem)

Making it yourself should cost you no more than $15 including vase, rocks, and orchids.

But if OP just buys the $100 pre-made version he'll have more time to let the flower bring him women.
