Palpatine and a Bulbo... I can see it now...a big bulbophyllum
phalaenopsis in a pot next to his throne/chair..."Come, Anakin, smell
the dark side..."

So I watched the latest Star Wars movie, and I liked it. But after returning
home, I thought that it did not have enough orchids in it. I rather thought
that Padme might have been portrayed as growing orchids to drive home the
fact that she is a hot house flower herself. Or maybe Palpatine could have
the habit of sniffing at his gorgeous but stinking Bulbo? Anyway, I googled
for "Star Wars" and "orchids" just in case, and discovered that actually
there is a scene in which there is an alien landscape covered with oversized
orchids, and I missed it! I guess I will have to watch the movie again. ;-)
