Flowers reflecting shapes are fascinating

Here is a selection of photographs of flowers that mimic other things, for example, one looks like a pair of lips, and another looks like dancing girls. Most of these flowers appear to be of the orchid variety, although there are other types such as a rose that resembles a skull.

One has to wonder why these plants have evolved flowers that are both unique and extraordinary, and that appears to be created to be appreciated by humans.
