Considering the name orchid comes from the Greek for testicle(??) i’d say there’s far more of a feminine sensuality on display here than the male… But then the Greeks were describing the tuber under the supporting substrate than the actual flowers themselves. š

Yes, Georgia and I would consider these more feminine than masculine.
