Join in a celebration of beauty and bayanihan – the Filipino word for the spirit of community and giving help without expecting any in return – at Cloud Forest’s newest orchid display.

Gardens by the Bahay Kubo: A Fiesta of Orchids pays tribute to the stunning orchids and heartwarming culture of the Philippines. After all, the orchids found in the Philippines are among the most beautiful in the world, and the country also has one of the highest levels of endemic orchid species. The Bahay Kubo is a traditional indigenous stilt house, an icon of Philippine culture, that is a metaphor for the strong community ties that the country is so known for. When a family wants to relocate, all the men in the neighbourhood will gather to help move their Bahay Kubo! In the display, a Bahay Kubo sits amidst more than 40 taxa of orchids, including those of the Vanda, Dendrobium and Phalaenopsis genera that best represent the beauty of Philippine orchids. Make sure you come by within the first few weeks of opening day to catch the limited blooming of the waling waling or Vanda sanderiana, affectionately called the Queen of Philippine Orchids by admirers. Throughout the display, there will be an abundance of other stunning blooms such as the Phalaenopsis schilleriana, an orchid endemic to the Philippines and an ancestor of many of the pink moth orchid hybrids we see today.
