I used to dislike orchids. Orchid was one of the flowers I hated most among with Rose.
I think Roses are overrated. Beauty is in the eye of beholder, but I think when people look at roses, their judgement is blinded by it's symbolism for romance and love. And romance and love are meant to be beautiful.
As for orchids, I simply thought it is ugly. I still think some are, the typical orchids if you know what I mean. Those with weird, skimpy little petals that look like aliens, yuckk!!
Until I came across this particular species called the Phalaenopsis - aka the Butterfly Orchird. They are simply gorgeous!
