What, in your opinions, are some exotic looking flowers?

Which flowers can i grow along side my weed plant? i have a 400 watt mh and hps bulb.
I know roses are one that need a lot of sunlight but which other plants would go good with my other stuff?
damn near anything. i am growing coleus and habanero with my plants, and they are loving the 24hr light. many flowers and peppers, any plant that likes full sun. plants that need shade can also be placed around the borders of your growroom.

I've always liked the Ghost Orchid and how it looks, but my understanding is that this flower is rare so I would assume it can't be grown at home by just anyone who'd like to. So what are some other flowers that look very exotic or beautiful like the Ghost Orchid does?


Ghost Orchid
lovely flower, never seen that type before, here in england.

i just copyed this from the obove site link.
the seeds hardley cost anything, for what they are.
i started a bird of paradise 3 years ago, it took 7 months to germ.
and its now 3 years old and only 10", but i have potted it on, and hope it start shooting up this year.
just saying these seeds, if started would take 3 years or so before they proper start to bush, and the seeds are hard to start, 10 times longer and harder than cannabis, if so try to get already rooted cuttings.
ask a neighbour for a cutting, or just take one from what ever tree you like. if you can.
if i ever see a flower shrub tree i like in a garden, i knock on the door and ask if i may have a cutting.
they always say yes.
