The orchid's insurance

As an example of how it is easy to say nonsense with the 'part' symbol '.', I picked two random topics: flowers and insurance,

The idea is that for random topics P, and Q, the P.Q would be nonsense. But perhaps there is a kindOf P and a kindOf Q where it is not nonsense? 

We imagine a very special orchid, being shipped and someone insuring it against damage. Now the "orchid's insurance" makes sense.
