Bio
.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. AVAILABLE ON ITUNES: ...... Black flowers are, for many, the unicorns of the orchid world...mythical beasts with an entire cadre of stories, hopes, and dreams built around the possibility of their existence. Can an orchid conjure evil? For centuries, flower enthusiasts, poets, and the merely maudelin have all sought a truly black flower, the kind you'd expect growing in a cemetery. When the orchid craze struck Europe during the 19th century, there was a great deal of speculation about the potenial discovery of a black orchid, yet it proved as elusive as the black tulips people had been trying to bread for many years. Alas, no truly black flower has ever been described. (Author and permission by Joseph Dougherty) .. .. .... ....
