However, a few of the ground orchids (also rarely some epiphytic ones) bore green to brown or reddish-brown mottled (with irregular marks, blotches or patches), variegated (with zones of different shades of colour) and reticulated (with net like veins) leaves. Due to their beautiful leaf colouration and vein patterns, these orchids are called \u201cJewel Orchids\u201d. Many species from the genera Anoectochilus, Corybas, Goodyera, Neottia, Paphiopedilum, Zeuxine etc., are examples of \u201cJewel Orchids&#8221;, with astonishingly beautiful leaves. These orchids with their attractive leaves are very decorative even when not in flower, hence is of great demand among orchid growers and enthusiasts across the globe.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Post 02 &#8211; 19\/Aug\/2020<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1734\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1734\" style=\"width: 433px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2a-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1734\" src=\"http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2a-2.jpg\" alt=\"Goodyera sp.\" width=\"433\" height=\"650\" srcset=\"http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2a-2.jpg 433w, http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2a-2-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 433px) 100vw, 433px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1734\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Goodyera sp.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1735\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1735\" style=\"width: 412px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2b.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1735\" src=\"http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2b.jpg\" alt=\"Anoectochilus sp.\" width=\"412\" height=\"650\" srcset=\"http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2b.jpg 412w, http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2b-190x300.jpg 190w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 412px) 100vw, 412px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1735\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Anoectochilus sp.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1736\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1736\" style=\"width: 447px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2b1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1736\" src=\"http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2b1.jpg\" alt=\"Paphiopedilum sp.\" width=\"447\" height=\"650\" srcset=\"http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2b1.jpg 447w, http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2b1-206x300.jpg 206w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 447px) 100vw, 447px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1736\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Paphiopedilum sp.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1737\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1737\" style=\"width: 407px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2e.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1737\" src=\"http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2e.jpg\" alt=\"Anoectochilus sp.\" width=\"407\" height=\"650\" srcset=\"http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2e.jpg 407w, http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2e-188x300.jpg 188w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 407px) 100vw, 407px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1737\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Anoectochilus sp.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1738\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1738\" style=\"width: 450px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2e1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1738\" src=\"http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2e1.jpg\" alt=\"Corybas sp.\" width=\"450\" height=\"649\" srcset=\"http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2e1.jpg 450w, http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2e1-208x300.jpg 208w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1738\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Corybas sp.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1739\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1739\" style=\"width: 450px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2f.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1739\" src=\"http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2f.jpg\" alt=\"Goodyera sp.\" width=\"450\" height=\"564\" srcset=\"http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2f.jpg 450w, http:\/\/naresh.org.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/JWLP2f-239x300.jpg 239w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1739\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Goodyera sp.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Orchid leaves are generally green in colour, with parallel veins converging to both ends.
