It is circular and curved
It's because of its pollination system.These orchids are pollinated by the male Euglossini bees and the process is very complex.It may uptake nearly 45 minutes because the insects are trying to collect ingredients from the flower to make a perfume.The perfume is used by the males to attract the females.
The coryanthes orchid plant has a unique shape with pouch-like structures called "bucket" or "helmet" flowers. These flowers have a concave lip that collects rainwater, attracting pollinating insects that slip into the bucket and exit through a narrow passage, ensuring pollination.
Yes. They are pure orchids. Some very nice and peculiar shape, but real orchids. See some wikipedia comments on it. Greetings Gerard.
Brown's orchids, specifically the Coryanthes genus, are known for their unique reproductive structures and mechanisms. Researchers discovered that these orchids have evolved intricate adaptations to attract and trap pollinators, specifically certain species of bees. The flowers feature a distinctive bucket-like structure that collects rainwater, which aids in guiding the pollinators into the reproductive parts of the plant. This fascinating interaction highlights the complex relationships between plants and their pollinators in ecological systems.
The Brazil nut tree can only be pollinated by an orchid bee, which feeds on a specific type of orchid Coryanthes vasquezii. So without the orchid growing nearby, the tree can not be pollinated and no Brazil nuts (which are actually the tree's seeds) can be produced.

Which house?
very weirdly and unusual
Miniature orchids, like many other orchids, are generally considered non-toxic to cats. However, while they are not poisonous, ingestion of any plant material can cause gastrointestinal upset in pets. It's always best to monitor your cat around any houseplants and consult a veterinarian if you notice any unusual behavior or symptoms.

No more unusual than the right isosceles triangle, which is a diagonally-bisected square.
Can I gift orchids from Zynah Orchids to someone special in India?
