Saed News: This plant performs pollination when it is touched or when insects land on it, which is quite fascinating and intriguing.
According to the Family Magazine Service of Saed News, the orchid flower is renowned worldwide for its beauty and variety and is one of the largest plant families in the world. There are between 25,000 to 30,000 different species of orchids, with at least 10,000 found in tropical regions. The various species of this plant can vary greatly in size, weight, and color. While some may be the size of a hand when they bloom, others can have a single petal that reaches up to 30 inches in height. The blossoms of this flower may appear in almost every imaginable color, except for black.
These plants, when an insect such as a honeybee touches certain parts of the flower, quickly and precisely release a pollen capsule and launch it toward the visitor. This "shot" is so efficient that the pollen sticks to the insect, ensuring it is transferred to another flower for pollination.
