Monkey Orchids
The Monkey orchid (Orchis simia) is a greyish pink to reddish species of the Orchis genus. It gets its common name from its lobed lip which mimics the general shape of a monkey's body. The species' range is Europe, the Mediterranean, Russia, Asia Minor and Iran. It is noted for its pungent odor, which is similar to that of feces.

Re: Monkey Orchids
Looks beautiful.
Too bad they smell like feces, tho.
I guess they use flies to pollinate.

Re: Monkey Orchids
so the first pic is of a hybrid with the mother plant being the Lady orchid and the male being the Monkey Orchid. Interesting. Amazingly enough it looks like a monkey and smells like one too.
