Costa Rica Orchids

An orchid can grow in almost any climate except deserts, but most of them are native to tropical and subtropical climates, with tropical America having the largest variety. An orchid can also grow in all kinds of soil, including rocky soil or anchored on trees. The color of an orchid depends mainly on where they grow. At Turu Ba Ri Park, Costa Rica you can find one of the best orchids collection at a 2,400-square-meter area with around 918 feet in trails. The trails have been cultivated with trees from the botanical genus Bahuinia, which is used as a host plant for the orchids. There are over 500 host trees, which house some 1,100 plants that pertain to this important family. This garden offers the chance to observe and get to know these colorful, interesting plants and their intricately shaped flowers. The orchids flowering season depends on the species. However, the months from December to April see the most flowers
