Another photo I took at the National Orchid Gardens. For those coming to WOC, let me know, we can hit this spot together

Suits the name. For those not familiar with the Malay language; loosely translated it means 'Feelings of Love'. Named after arguably the most famous and catchy folksong of the Malay Archipelago and of Indonesian origin( I must mention this so as not to add on to the diplomatic row between Malaysia and Indonesia re the song). The chorus which goes " Rasa sayang,hey rasa sayang, sayang hey;
Hey, lihat nona jauh - rasa sayang, sayang hey"
which very loosely translated(my own) " Feelings of love well up in me,
When I spy that maiden from afar."

Lovely dendrobe, Vincent. Thanks for the parentage - I can see now where it got its lip and green edgings from.

Will be going for the WOC and probably will take you up on the offer. Hehheh
