My mom sent me an email with these photos. I was astounded! Then I read this article that explains why these pictures are even more amazing. These flowers are the result of months of training the plants, using a special Japanese method, all for just a couple weeks of blooming.
On a side note, My grandfather used to breed and show orchids and anthuriums. He kept them in the shade of his huge lychee tree. There were dozens upon dozens of pots of them. I remember my grandma watering the anthuriums for years after he died, keeping them alive. (My mom lurks on my blog sometimes--she might post about Grandpa's plants in the comments.)

Oh my gosh!!!! These are stunning!
All that work for two weeks worth of blooms, huh? Is that kind of like writing a book?
