Infact Kathakali dance is the representation of God and not Ghosts!!! But when I came to know of the orchid's name for the first time in my life, I was really amused, why they called it Kathakali orchid. Infact it does have a very peculiar structure which I felt when I saw it live later. By the way, the petals are of indefinite growth so they keep elongating..... :)) now it sounds ghostly!!! Pankaj
