Wild Orchid from Borneo

I went to Kota Kinabalu last Saturday to attend a 5 days course. I deliberately went a day earlier so that i can go to my favourite haunt, an old lady at tamu in Gaya street whom sell wild orchid. The first time i bought orchids from her was 7 years ago. Some is thriving while some were perish when i left home for further study. This time there were not many species sold, but i managed to get 4 species of slipper orchid and 6 other species.  The price is between $15 to $20 each, much cheaper than in Peninsular.
