Once again the orchids are on display at the Missouri Botanical Garden. I snapped some photos or these incredible beings. After all, they are our cousins. Richard Dawkins estimates that animals diverged from the plant kingdom about two billion years ago [1].

I’ve written previously about Darwin’s fascination with orchids here [2]. For today, I will simply paste in a few new photos of these incredibly beautiful plants. I’ve posted many more of my photos of today’s show at one of my public web albums at Picasa. [3]
