Where it works
Swan orchid blooms in olive green spotted red, white lips flecked crimson, with dark curved columns like swan necks, cluster over green leaves on Fitch's 1846 plate. Green on green, it suits a study with olive, sage or dark green walls at 16×24 in natural wood, beside the Leopard Orchid.
