Waling-waling Hybrid

Euanthe sanderiana is a flower of the orchid family. It is commonly called Waling-waling in the Philippines and is also called Sander's Euanthe, after Henry Frederick Conrad Sander, a noted orchidologist. The orchid is considered to be the "Queen of Philippine flowers" and is worshiped as a diwata by the native Bagobo people. Heinrich Gustav Reichenbach originally named Euanthe sanderiana as Vanda sanderiana.

Some specie of Waling-waling are endemic and can be found exclusively in some parts of Mindanao Region and Zamboanga City is one of it. Waling-waling is dubbed as the Queen of the Orchids in the Philippines. My mother and aunt used to take care of this kind of flower, orchid to be specific, and when it bloom, it's like you're looking on a painting that's very exquisite and it is sooo pretty. Waling-waling is also considered to be one of the most beautiful variety of orchid in the whole wide world. Now that's a wrap! ;)
