If an orchid fell in the forest, would the fridge light go off?

i ripe fig can look like that place too, you have to split it open just right though.

another bit of food for thought, if you were to order an open faced sandwhich, would you be served pastrami, or the roast beef?

I don't know what you're talking about, so here's a picture of a bunny with an orchid on his head.

Orchids are epiphytic, growing on other plants in regions of high moisture. The dry deserts aren't conducive for supporting this type of plant.

Now stapeliads are the orchid of the succulent world. Very beautiful and highly desireable for their ornamental value.

And yes, these are the ones known for the rotting flesh smell of the blooming flowers. :D

Adenium, or Desert Rose, are from South Africa and a bit north, and also have delectible flowers and quite interesting growth habits.
