Papilionanthe Miss Joaquim
''Papilionanthe'' Miss Joaquim, also known as the Singapore orchid, the Princess Aloha orchid and formerly as ''Vanda'' Miss Joaquim, is a hybrid orchid (a grex) that is the national flower of Singapore. For its resilience and year-round blooming quality, it was chosen on 15 April 1981 to represent Singapore's uniqueness and hybrid culture. History Ashkhen Hovakimian ( Agnes Joaquim) bred this orchid which bears her name. It was recognised as a hybrid not only by orchid expert Henry Ridley in 1893 and again in 1896, but by other contemporary orchid growers as well as orchid journals including the Orchid Review. Sander's Complete List of Orchid Hybrids, which distinguished between natural and artificial hybrids, listed Vanda Miss Joaquim as an artificial hybrid. ''Vanda'' Miss Joaquim is a cross between the Burmese ''Vanda teres'' (now called '' Papilionanthe teres'') and the Malayan ''Vanda hookeriana'' (now called '' Papilionanthe hookeriana''). It was not known which of t ...
