Default orchids in literature

Thanks. This is exactly the kind of thing I'm looking for--not books
about orchids, but books or movies about something else in which
orchids play some kind of role. Also found a Nancy Drew mystery about
orchids.

I'm thinking of putting together a seminar on orchids for our learning
and retirement group and thought that a session on orchids in
literature *(or song or the movies) would be neat. *However, the only
ones that come to mind are Brenda Starr and the black orchid and then
Nero Wolfe. *Google was not any help to me. *Do any of you know of any
other instances in which orchids play a role in a book or song or
movie?
