The most efficient way of reproduction for an orchid is, as was mentioned prior, sexual reproduction - aka pollination (as with many other flowering plants). It is irrespective of them being in cultivation or in the wild. Asexual reproduction is too slow, does not offer the numbers needed to sustain a stable population to ensure the species' survival, nor does it offer a whole lot of genetic variation/genetic recombination.
