Hiscock (2019) Rhizanthella: Orchids unseen. Look around, who knows you might be able to see a ‘hidden’ flower. Which is making them even more interesting. Lots of uncertainties about these hidden flowers. With underground living marsupial mammals being the prime suspects for seed dispersal. Termites, fungus gnats, flies, and wasps are part of the candidates that may be pollinating these flowers. Although, researchers have their suspicions. This is making them difficult to find and to study.įor example, it is still unclear who is actually pollinating these flowers, and who is spreading their seeds. Co-produced by Masako and Will Ackerman, along with sound engineer and co-producer, Tom Eaton, Hidden Flowers is brimming and light-filled with the pure, ripe blossoms of evocative, gentle melodies and reflective soundscapes. Of the fourth, only its flowers come above ground. Hidden Flowers is the 5 th album from Japanese born, multiple award-winning piano artist, Masako. Three of the four species of this genus live completely underground. These Australian orchids, because that is what I am talking about, belong to the genus Rhizanthella. Only when they flower, they will stick above the ground. Steal their nutrients from other plants, and pretend they are not here. Did you for example know that there are plants that are literally stay hidden for us? They grow underground. Which is sad as we also don’t see their many fascinating aspects. They are not moving, so they are not a direct danger to us. The ever presents of plants makes that we often don’t even notice them.
