TSPOCT2015-17: Images Spathoglottis plicata shared

It is my pleasure to share a few images of Spathoglottis plicata (Orchidaceae)
Habit: Terrestrial 
Habitat: Cultivated, Ornamental 
Sighting: Tumkur, Home garden, about 800 msl 
Date: 21-07-2014, 4-08-2014, 5-08-2014 and 6-09-2014
I am not sure if this is hybrid or a normal plicata, because the flwoers are supposed to be facing towards front in Spathoglottis plicata.
Usha mam, the first pic is of the fruit that has already dehisched and spread the seeds...
thanks ... even green fruits open up to release seeds. would those seeds be ripe?
i am only drawing parallels with pods we eat like green peas or seem (butterbeans) etc greedpods there have unripe seeds.
In orchids if the fruits open, then for sure seeds are ripe. One thing about orchid seeds are, they dont have any reserved food as they have no endosperm and they are dispersed by wind as they are super light in weight. Seeds may take some time to germinate, but they are always ripe.
You cant compare it with peas. The two big cotyledons in these seeds are actually the food reserve which provides nurition to the embryo to germinate, because you actually open the unripe peas or beans because they are soft and in that stage they cant be planted (usually). You dont usually wait for the beans to ripe to eat, because they are too hard to cook by that time.
yes logical idea.. about opening pods to eat at will. would both be unripe... correct and dispersal of orchid seeds info: an eye opener. will look it up and No endosperm.... is that why they need compatible fungi to grow with?
Yes orchid seeds as they lack their own food, they need food from secondary sources so they need fungi.
1. Fungi is very much specific of the habitat where they grow.
2. Orchid is very much specific of the fungi they link with and ofcourse they are specific to habitat too.
So orchids are kind of more picky in choosing where to grow and hence they are not so common in occurence in comparision to other plants. So to cope with this issue, orchids produces millions of seeds in each capsule but the survival rate is very low in wild. But please remember one plant if produces 1 fruit in an year and 1 fruit gives millions of seeds and only 5 survives and grow to adult.... ITS PERFECTLY FINE FOR ORCHIDS, as there is an increase in population and that is what each species in the world wants.....TO REPRODUCE !!!

Spathoglottis plicata Sunshine Orchid ??

Don't know about the identity of the hybrid but yes it should be one of Spathoglottis plicata.
I assume you meant "Gardens by the bay". Marina Bay is the name of the hotel.
Do share pics of the garden. I was there when it was inaugurated. Never got a chance to visit again.
