The United States and Japan share the charming "foreign flowers" (55) Cayman banana orchid (Myrmecophila thomsoniana)

Cayman banana orchid is an epiphyte that usually parasitizes mahogany or round wood, which is a tree with rough bark and uneven bark. But Cayman banana orchid is kind-hearted and does not harm the host like a parasitic plant, or even take the life of the host, but lives in harmony with the host.

The flowers are about 100 cm long, the flowers are about 6 cm in diameter, pink, the sepals and petals are purplish brown, the lip petals are white, the tip is red, and there is a slight fragrance. When the flowers bloom, the fragrance of flowers is like water that has opened the floodgates, flowing and splashing everywhere.

Cayman banana orchid is native to the Cayman Islands, and this species is only found in the Cayman Islands, making it a rare and rare plant.
