Orchid Sanctuary
If you've seen the movie Adaptation, you know there's something extremely special about orchids. In Coban there is an orchid sanctuary that hosts rare orchids, some so uncommon that only 50 known specimins exist in the world. The national flower of Guatemala, the Monja Blanca, is a rare orchid that costs up to $600 to buy off the black market from an orchid hunter.
This one is very similar to the Monja Blanca.
