The wild winds are blowing cold and frosty outside…
But it’s positively tropical inside! This orchid is so bright and cheerful – and it blooms for such a long time when it’s happy.
You will recall that two summers ago, I put most of my orchids outside in too much of a sunny spot. They are still recuperating from that (orchids grow slow!). But they are all putting on new roots and leaves.
And one has even put up a bloom stem. As I said, these guys grow slow (at least in my experience), so could be months before we see actual flowers. Which drives me nuts… because I don’t remember what colours any of my orchids are! I really should label them when they bloom!

Such sweet little blooms! Orchids are so persnickety. I can’t imagine the skill and patience it must take to make them happy.

I need a new orchid–mine has bit the dust! I will pick one up in WalMart next time I am in town!!!

Beautiful orchid! Mine is almost ready to burst forth with blooms. Lots of buds. It will probably be most beautiful while I’m gone.
Blessings,

Labels make sense, or a notebook to use when you need to research.

That yellow is so pretty.
Two of my orchids did not make it. They were “rescues” and in pretty bad shape when I got them. Rehabbing just didn’t go as planned.
My other orchid looks good. Good roots. So far no bloom spike.
