M15: Philippine Orchid Postcard

This is a 3D postcard that shows a Philippine orchid. It looks like it is the same orchid as the MF23 Postcard; either Cattleya or Phalaenopsis.

MF23: Philippine Orchid Postcard

The postcard shows another Philippine orchid. Am not sure if this is a Cattleya or Phalaenopsis. If anyone can identify the orchid, do leave a comment. I will then research more about the said orchid.

MF21: Philippine Orchid Postcard

The postcard shows one of the many orchids that are endemic in the Philippines. Unfortunately I could not identify this specific orchid. I have checked online but no luck. I have also checked my stamp collection and found souvenir sheets or miniature sheets of different Philippine orchids, but also cannot find it!

TRIVIA: The Philippines is home to more than 800 species of orchids.

MF4: Flower Bouquet Postcard

The postcard shows another flower bouquet. I can only name one of the flowers, or I might be wrong. The two white flowers are Bellis annua or the Annual Daisy. However, I do not know the name of the violet (or is it lavender) and the red flowers.
