17 Flowers That Look Like Something Else

The blossom of a flower, as a reproductive organ, evolved with one primary purpose in mind to attract pollinators like insects or birds. Their astonishing evolutionary explosion of unique flower kinds with vibrant colors and unusual designs, some of which have even evolved to resemble different people, plants, or animals, has been driven by this function.

And though there are thousands of different flowers and cool plants, orchids somehow manage to steal the show every time. These colorful orchid varieties’ vibrant colors draw insects and birds, indicating that their blossoms are brimming with scrumptious nectar. On the other hand, their forms frequently change over time to exclude parasites or other undesirable pollinators while attracting or accommodating particular pollinators. While other of these uncommon blooms are ideal for hummingbirds or other birds of prey, some of them are more hospitable to bees.

Their stunning colors and biodiversity have attracted another type of creature as well – us. These flowers are prized by orchid lovers for their likeness to other familiar objects, which, while coincidental, is nevertheless quite interesting!
