The present Doodle praises the Independence Day of the nation frequently called the entryway to South America: Colombia. On this day in 1810, occupants of Bogotá called for opportunity from Spanish principle. This critical occasion brought about a brief freedom that helped make ready for Colombia’s inevitable changeless power.
Included in the present Doodle work of art is Colombia’s national blossom, the Cattleya trianae. Additionally referred to in Spanish as the Flor de Mayo (May Flower), the Cattleya trianae orchid generally develops all through the cloud woodlands of the Colombian Andes.
Colombia is home to as much as 4,000 one of a kind types of orchid, more than some other nation on the planet, and the Cattleya trianae is among 1,500 assortments that can’t be found anyplace else on the planet. Named after Colombian botanist José Jerónimo Triana, the Cattleya trianae was picked as the nation’s national blossom in 1936 because of its red, blue, and yellow shading, equivalent to the stripes of Colombia’s banner.
¡Feliz Día de la Independencia, Colombia! Cheerful Independence Day!
