ORCHIDS 
The Orchids are the nobility of the flower world, they 
ere a race set apart. No common garb is theirs. The 
lilies and the irises, their next of kin, wear blue—but 
never the orchids. These stand in purple and gold, with 
all the shades between the faintest gleam of pearl and 
the intensest crimson violet.
