That said, the number of species of plants is as much as twice the number of species of birds and four species of mammals. Ornamental plants are still one family with vanilla.

Ornamental plants are widely spread in the tropics tend to be wet to the circumpolar region. In tropical regions, these plants are epiphyte life. Life as an epiphyte means dependent on other plants. Although it sounds similar to the parasite, epiphytic way of life is totally different from parasitism or parasite.

Plants that live in a way epiphytes can produce their own food. He did not interfere with the growth of the host plant. Water the plants needed is obtained from rain, dew or moisture. Nutrients required by plants also he can not plant a mother. These plants get the nutrients from the stem or other plant leftovers are already rotten and decomposed.

Plants epiphytic type of backup does not take food from plant mother. But sometimes epiphytic plants blocking the intake of light that plants need a host to live. Meanwhile, in the temperate regions, these plants can live in the soil. Ornamental plants will form a kind of bulbs as one way to adapt to the environment tend to be cold. Ornamental plants only need a little water to survive. However, these plants also can not live if you have to be in an area that has a desert climate.

In growth, plants require sunlight, but not direct sunlight hit. That's why these plants are found in hidden places that are not exposed to direct sunlight.

In the past 2009 years, the world of biology commotion with the emergence of new orchid species, namely Platystele sp, a native of Ecuador. Species of interest was then crowned as the world's smallest orchid with a size 2 to 2.1 mm only. But apparently there are ornamental plants that are smaller in size, which Oberonia sp. Super mini orchid is found in Indonesia, precisely in the Mentawai islands. This flower was found in the year 2010, a year after Platystele sp from Ecuador was crowned as the smallest orchid.

The very small size led to research and identification difficult; yet more information about these plants in the region has not been known.

Although Indonesia has a large collection of plants does not mean that the knowledge and literature on Indonesia's interest is complete. Precisely collection of literature on ornamental plants is the most complete in England, as many botanists since the first country to come and analyze a variety of species of interest. It's just not a lot of information about the species Oberonia. Perhaps because of the small inconspicuous flowers for the botanist (does not look like orchids) and does not attract the attention of farmers.

From a handful of information obtained, supposedly this little flower is a flower native to Indonesia are abundant. Ongoing research, because experts suspect there are other species of smaller Oberonia again in our homeland.

Besides the roots being damaged, these plants have not been able to adapt to the new environment and vulnerable urban stress resulting in death. Meanwhile ornamental plant cultivation was developed for resale, so the plants are cultivated as much as possible to be able to adapt outside their natural habitat. The advantages of buying ornamental plants are cultivated in farmers you help the economy and help reduce the habit of pulling out the hunter in wild orchids in their natural habitat.
