The Origins of Orchids

Orchids were actually the first flowers and are still, I think, the flowers that have the most different variations. And then orchid being symbolic of this kind of hyper-sexualized life of flowers has such specific relationships with other species. The thing that a manuala said about kind of regrowing sexual organs, it's a concept that's been used in science fiction in the left-hand of darkness where the people of this planet called Winter have kind of monthly cycles.
