Default Corkscrew Swamp Ghost Orchid Blooms Again!!!!

The world-famous Corkscrew Swamp ghost orchid is in bloom again. This is the only ghost orchid whose location is not kept a well-guarded secret, but is rather made known to the public at large. Read more about it on my blog at:

That is so cool. I won't be using the ghost orchid hotels, but if anyone is going there anytime this month, let me know and maybe we can hook up and take some photos. Thanks Prem
