What Wikipedia says

Orchis is a genus in the orchid family (Orchidaceae), occurring mainly in Europe and Northwest Africa, and ranging as far as Tibet, Mongolia, and Xinjiang. The name is from the Ancient Greek ὄρχις (órkhis), meaning "testicle", from the appearance of the paired subterranean tuberoids.
