The name Acampe or Greek akampes means (rigid), which is the character of the plant. Also called ‘rigid air ?ower’, Acampe is a robust, monopodial epiphyte with coriaceous leaves and rigid ?owers. It is easily found in throughout Thailand, and is also found in Myanmar, Sikkim, Mumbai, the Western Ghats and Sri Lanka. Additionally, orchids have also been used in food. One such example is the vanilla orchid, who’s bean is used for flavoring in the much loved classic vanilla ice cream. Another example is the genus Dendrobia, which is commonly used as a food ingredient or garnish. So, in conclusion, though orchids are known mostly as decorative items to beautify our homes, they have many more uses than we may think.
Singapore is home to beautiful Peranakan Culture. Explore the vibrant world of Peranakan heritage through this Room Fragrances. The exact origins of the Peranakans are hard to pin down. Some believe them to be descendents of Chinese immigrant traders who married local Malay women or Bataks from Sumatra in 1500’s. Others believe them to be Chinese from Admiral Zheng He’s army in 1300’s, who married local malay women. Most scholars agree that the first wave of Chinese immigrants to Malaya and Indonesia could have arrived in the 10th century, however, the practice became much more common in the 15th century. The culture originates from mixed marriage between a Chinese man and Malay/Indonesian women. This created a very unique and amazing culture with unique traditions. Initially the wives could have been slaves, but eventually things improved and equality set in. See extra info on orchid perfume.
