Origin of name: The name orchid comes from a Greek word meaning testicle.
Flower sexuality:In the majority of species, individual flowers have both pistils and stamens as described above. These flowers are described by botanists as being perfect, bisexual, or hermaphrodite. Flowers determine love: There is a system of pulling flowers apart petal by petal reciting “she loves me” and “she loves me not” to learn the truth about the sincerity of the significant other.
