Thank you!

Seriously, I love Orchids and these are really beautiful and unique.🐓

I agree, Orchids have always fascinated me.

Both for the beauty, but also because of how they work, and the scientific history about them and how they have helped great scientists to better understand how nature work. :)

They are easy to like both as a artist that simply like beauty and as a nerd ;)

I am always happy to hear that the same thing that amaze me also amaze other people. :)
