跳舞女花?!?!?

I was fetching Kitson from the airport 
and happen to chance upon a beautiful landscape at terminal 2.
The flowers were glowing in a beautiful golden yellow colour.
I casually ask, I wonder what flowers are these....
Kitson replied, "跳舞女花!" (in Cantonese)
I went "YAH RIGHT!"
(what do guys know about flowers right!!)
But upon closer examination,
It does resembles the dress of a dancer!!

And when I did an internet search,
I found out that Kitson was RIGHT!
These are commonly known as dancing ladies,
Scientific name is Oncidium Gower Ramsey.
They are apparently among the most popular and easiest 
to maintain orchid in the world!

Amazing that my hubby knows so much about flowers!
