plant science book volume : 3

So i started reading this book my dad got for me. It was a science book about plants. Its about these twins Tracey and Blaine and their uncle Cecil. They have this zip-line that takes them to different places like the Amazon. They go to the Amazon in this book. They have this friend named Arrio. Arrio taught them about this flower. It's name is Moth Orchid. There is more than 20 thousand species of Moth Orchid in the Amazon rainforest. Orchids are emphytes. Emphytes means that they grow on tree branches. They get a lot of sun because they are high up there. They do not hurt the trees. They manage to get their sunlight and water from the air and the rain that falls from the canopy. A lot of people around the globe know about this flower because of its beauty and fragrance.
