Dendrophylax funalis, also known as the ghost orchid, is a species of epiphytic orchid that is native to the island of Jamaica.[1]
This flower is very similar to a flower of the same genus, Dendrophylax lindenii, which shares the same common name. The two flowers have the same scent of jasmine and fresh apples; however, D. funalis has small lime green petals while D. lindenii has two twisted white petals that look similar to the hind legs of a jumping frog. D. funalis is easier to cultivate than D. lindenii. Along with other flowers of the Dendrophylax genus, D. funalis is endangered.[2]
