Description
An elegant orchid on a white background. The orchid has an exotic allure unmatched by many other flowering plants. The orchid's name however, has a rather unflattering origin: Orchid is derived from the Ancient Greek word "orkhis" which means "testicle". This is because the shape of an orchid's root ball is in the shape of.... well....you get the point. I don't even want to get in to the origin story. That doesn't detract from the undeniable beauty of this unique flower but I'll probably never look at them the same again.
