Does an orchid eat meat and plants?

Orchids do not eat meat or plants; they are primarily photosynthetic plants that obtain nutrients from sunlight, water, and minerals in the soil. Some orchids, like certain species of the genus Bulbophyllum, may have evolved to trap insects for supplemental nutrients, but they do not "eat" in the traditional sense. Instead, they absorb nutrients from decomposing organic matter and the surrounding environment. Overall, orchids rely mainly on photosynthesis for their energy and growth.
