Aren't those plants incredible?  They are all individuals. 

Had a look at Wikipedia: 

Orchidaceae, commonly referred to as the Orchid family, is a morphologically diverse and widespread family of monocots. It is currently believed to be the second largest family of flowering plants (only the Asteraceae is larger), with between 21,950 and 26,049 currently accepted species, found in 880 genera.

I didn't realise how many there are.
