LOL.....

although not that weird, as the term orchid (=ορχιδέα) comes from the word testis (=όρχις) in greek, because of the appearance of greek terrestrial orchid tubers when the old one is not completely substituted by the new one...

Eeek!



One could take that old Lionel Richie song and rework the lyrics just a little bit...

"You're once, twice, three times a buddy..."

The daughter of one of my friends was born with 3 kidneys, one had to be removed.
On the other side, Polyorchidism is a very amusing labeling for persons, which have the problem to have too much orchids....
Never heard before that this problem really exists, it´s always possibe and much easier to amount density in the greenhouse than to get rid off the third testicle or kidney....
Best regards, Gina
