Description

Orchids are numerous in Costa Rica Orchids you can find easily in the Costa Rican rain forest, but the real beauties you find in Botanic gardens Photo taken in the Lankester Botanical Garden in the central part of Costa Rica, less than 75 miles east from the capital San Jose. Altitude approx. or a little less than one mile high!! Costa Rica lies squarely in the tropics, at a crossroads connecting North and South America. This "rich coast" country, is bordered to the east by the warm Caribbean, and the Atlantic Ocean, and to the west by the Pacific Ocean. In between these coasts, lie lowland jungles, mountain forest draped in mosses, alpine tundra, and dry forest Thanks for your time for viewing and your kind comments on my previous upload Henk

Amazing beauty. I have to smile when I think how you have gone from the tulip fields in Holland to orchids in Costa Rica. You do both with excellence.
