Actually this is for all those who thought they are same (multiflora and rosea), including me :P..
I finally realised that they are very much different from each other

Few more Orchids for id from Manipur
These printed Pics were shot and provided to us by some of ours Classmates from Manipur ( Who were resident of Manipur) in 1998.


I need to see the leaf. This is a big confusing between Aerides rosea and Aerides multiflora.


I think it is Aerides rosea
