The quest of the black flowers started when I came across the discovery channel about Holland and tulip gardens. Since then I always dream to have black tulip in my garden. It is like a day dream...never come true, unless I manage to build the cold house ;-(
This was the
starting point of my inquiry into the realm of black plants and flowers - and
indeed I was quite surprised of how many there are by now.
There
are not just black tulip...there are a lots of black flowers. So
interesting...then I deeply searching...at last I know I can have black
flower! Rare but it is true...
Obviously
the black flowers embrace shades ranging from dark red,dark purple to chocolate or ink
blue, since nature abhors absolute blackness, but on the whole the
result is pretty amazing. It's Gothic!
They are a touch pretentious - I admit, since all black robes
remind of sadness and maybe they are not very easy to get one in
the garden, for me black is elegant and special, nevertheless they emanate a great deal of sophistication.
To make
it short, I have many wish lists, but for the starting plant I can have
orchid for the first step in my collection. May be not so many people
know, there are black orchid too...not editing orchid with photoshop
editor lol...it is true and real. My black orchid is on the way...currently I already have one and another one is on the way ;-)

All those black blooms looks lovely! Not surprised you like them too!
Wow!!!
You are getting the Black Pearl Orchid!!!
How much it cost you?
Can that one survive in our climate?
M and G> The Gothic flowers really special and 'unique'...I like all, but only a few I can grow in my garden ;(
JM> The Black pearl orchid is very costly...but worth it. That one can survive in our climate coz the parentage are intergeneric hybrid between Momordia and Catasetum. Those genera can planted very well here.
If I want to buy a black pearl - how much is the reasonable price should I consider.
(Just want to know the price & value here)
Does the new plants coming out from the black pearl still remains black - since it is intergeneric - do they return back to the original parent colour after new bulbs growth?
If you can - I would be very much interested to know about this orchid - please follow up about the details & care.
And perhaps if you are planning to sell a plantlet - how much would you cost it - if I were to buy it.
Thanks for reading my long question.
JM> Black pearl is currently not selling in Malaysia t this moment. Normally the prize around USD100-200 in the internet.
The black pearl will remain black even for new bulb. Actually this FDK have many variants, there are two form are almost black, Black pearl and Black Diamond (Nightmare before Christmas).
To take care this orchid is similar to catasetum hybrid. I don't know yet how much I can sell it for the baby plant. If I got any news about this orchid I will email personally to you.
