Many people (even experienced green thumbers) will tell you that orchids are impossible to grow, and even harder to get to bloom again.

So, if you want to appreciate the beauty of the orchids in all their glory, this colorful wooden jigsaw puzzle will help you to do so, without trying to figure out which window they need, and how often and how much to water them. As self-confessed orchid-killers ourselves, we thought that sounded like a much easier proposition.

These gorgeous orchids were captured in full bloom by the famous German Zoologist Ernst Haeckel. We have Haeckel to thank for cataloging many of the world's most beautiful species, and we are especially appreciative that he made it a passion to illustrate as many of the worlds orchids as possible. Even if he never made it to all 25,000. 


The perfect gift for wooden jigsaw puzzlers, and orchid lovers, this traditional adult wooden jigsaw puzzle can be done time and again. Our wooden jigsaw puzzle artists have included many shaped whimsy puzzle pieces that match the theme of the image, and we have integrated them in ways that will delight and surprise you as you put the wooden jigsaw puzzle together.

Ernst Haeckel

Ernst Haeckel was a German biologist, naturalist, philosopher, physician, and artist born in 1834 in Potsdam, Prussia. He is best known for his intricate and scientifically detailed illustrations of flora and fauna, which bridged the worlds of art and science in the 19th century. Trained in medicine and zoology, Haeckel became a professor at the University of Jena. He was an early supporter of Darwin's theory of evolution, which heavily influenced his scientific and artistic work. His passion for natural forms and structures led him to document many marine organisms with stunning precision and beauty.

Haeckel's most renowned artistic accomplishment is his publication Kunstformen der Natur (Art Forms of Nature), a collection of highly stylized yet scientifically accurate lithographs first released in 1899. These illustrations, featuring jellyfish, radiolarians, and other marine life, showcased symmetry and structure in the natural world with both scientific clarity and aesthetic elegance. The visual language Haeckel developed profoundly impacted the Art Nouveau movement, leaving a lasting impression on artists and designers with his organic patterns and flowing forms.

In addition to his visual contributions, Haeckel coined many biological terms still in use today, including "ecology" and "phylogeny." While some of his evolutionary theories and ideas on human development have been critiqued and revised over time, his influence on scientific visualization and the popular perception of nature remains profound. Haeckel's intricate and scientifically detailed illustrations of flora and fauna, along with his coined terms, have significantly shaped how the general public perceives and understands nature. Ernst Haeckel died in 1919, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire scientists, artists, and nature enthusiasts around the world.
