Around the world, florists sell flowers for a wide range of events and functions that, cumulatively, encompass one's lifetime.
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.
