  2. The orchid doesn't even look real, the colors are so intense.

    That may be because it's not real. There's at least one U.S. company out there selling blue orchids, which they turn blue by injecting them with dye.

    The picture in this post looks more like a Dendrobium than a Phalaenopsis (the usual victim), but I've seen Dendrobiums turned blue before also.
