“Rothschild’s Slipper, the rarest Orchid on Earth. At least the most expensive. It’s only found in one place, a particular mountain in Borneo. It can take up to fifteen years to bloom. All that time perfecting itself. A life-time, six perfect flowers.” “How long will it bloom?” “A moment.” “Is it poisonous?” “Like all beautiful things, I hope so.” (I know, I didn’t catch the flowers.) #rothschildslipper #orchid #kewgardens #pennydreadful https://www.instagram.com/p/B1E0_DdnVwL/?igshid=14p94ucsv3vrw
