I received a division of this ground orchid from my friend AC over a year ago. She had purchased it from a bargain bin and up until this point, neither of us knew what the blooms looked like. What a pleasant surprise it turned out to be, I've not seen a ground orchid like it before. Doing a quick google search, it appears to be a Spathoglottis, from the Philippines.
"Invent a new word and illustrate or demonstrate its meaning" " PETASUSAURUS " Noun . A lizard, preferably a chameleon, that is placed on the head to control bothersome mosquitoes. From the Latin, petasus , meaning "hat" and the Greek, sauros . meaning "lizard;" or literally, a "lizard hat." Modern usage : " Hey man, nice petasusaurus! " (I haven't drawn in anime style for ages!) (October 17, 2016) Update: I've been corrected, "Hey (wo)man, nice petasusaurus!" Thanks, AS
