"The orchids are the nobility of the flower world. They are a race set apart. No common garb is theirs. Like scions of a noble race, they have a curiously devised heraldry and may be known by their horns and antlers, tails and ears, and queerly fashioned crests."
Gibson, W.H. 1905. Our Native Orchids. Doubleday, Page, New York.
