...However, in areas where commercial collectors flocked to, many species disappeared from their native habitats. The craze for tropical orchids lasted much longer than that for tulips in Europe, reaching its peak in the 19th century. HG Reichenbach, who devoted his life to orchids, was called the "king of orchid maniacs," and after his death, his collection was preserved in the Imperial Museum in Vienna. The flower's meaning is "beauty" and "splendor."
