I am happy to say, that the new cactus is blooming again.

And this time I got pictures!!! Aren’t they pretty? They almost don’t look real. They don’t last very long, just a day or two. But they are very welcome while they are there.

Upstairs in my office, I have this small-leafed hoya. It’s my happiest hoy. And I know that because it blooms every few months or so.

It has two little bunches this time. They aren’t quite open, but they are close. You can see by my hands how tiny the flowers are. They are just plain white – not as showy as some other hoyas, but I love them none the less. They don’t last super long either. One day I’ll come in and they will all have fallen to my desktop (usually all over my keyboard). But I enjoy every minute they are there.

And last… the only orchid with a bloom stem is taking it’s sweet time. But as you can see, we are slowly getting closer to actual flowers! They may even come before spring!
