🏝️ Habitat Conditions

🌺 Flower

The flower has three petals and three sepals, and is bilaterally symmetrical. Due to the complex shape of the flower, pollination can only occur with specific pollinators, resulting in a very low fruit set rate.

🎋 Stem

It lacks a woody structure, and its stems are classified into two types: monocaule and polycaule. In monocaule, a single stem continues to grow, although new stems may emerge, with the original stem continuing to develop. In polycaule, the stem stops growing after reaching a certain height, and new stems emerge.

🪴 Root&Soil

They don't have fine roots, and their roots are thicker compared to other plants. They are broadly classified into epiphytic and terrestrial orchids. Epiphytic orchids grow attached to trees or rocks, while terrestrial orchids root in the ground.
