The Orchid<\/b> was the name given to a DHARMA Initiative<\/a> station<\/a> dedicated to exotic matter research, namely time travel<\/a>, under the guise of being a botanical research station. The true station was located in an underground chamber beneath a greenhouse, and drew energy for its experiments from the same anomalous energy source as the frozen wheel<\/a>. The Orchid was located several hours north or northwest of the survivors’ camp<\/a>, and was found fairly close to the remnants of the statue of Taweret<\/a>. (Lostpedia<\/a>)<\/p>\n

We are also talking about this on Twitter. Use the hashtag #CPP<\/p>\n

The Creative Prompt Project, also, has a Flickr group<\/a>, which you can join to\u00a0 post your responses. I created this spot so those of you without blogs and websites would have a place to post your responses.<\/p>\n

Definition<\/a>: “Orchidaceae<\/b> is a diverse and widespread family<\/a> of flowering plants with blooms that are often colourful and often fragrant, commonly known as the orchid family<\/b>. Along with the Asteraceae<\/a>, they are one of the two largest families of flowering plants, with between 21,950 and 26,049 currently accepted species<\/a>, found in 880 genera<\/a>.[2]<\/a><\/sup>[3]<\/a><\/sup> Selecting which of the two families is larger is still under debate, as concrete numbers on such enormous families are constantly in flux. Regardless, the number of orchid species nearly equals the number of bony fishes<\/a> and more than twice the number of bird<\/a> species, and about four times the number of mammal<\/a> species. The family also encompasses about 6\u201311% of all seed plants<\/a>.[4]<\/a><\/sup> The largest genera are Bulbophyllum<\/a><\/i> (2,000 species), Epidendrum<\/a><\/i> (1,500 species), Dendrobium<\/a><\/i> (1,400 species) and Pleurothallis<\/a><\/i> (1,000 species).<\/p>\n

The family also includes Vanilla<\/a><\/i> (the genus of the vanilla plant<\/a>), Orchis<\/a><\/i> (type genus), and many commonly cultivated plants such as Phalaenopsis<\/a><\/i> and Cattleya<\/a><\/i>. Moreover, since the introduction of tropical species into cultivation in the 19th century, horticulturists<\/a> have produced more than 100,000 hybrids<\/a> and cultivars<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

Vanilla is a kind of orchid!<\/p>\n
