O Is for Orchid
Another example of my gardening speci-al-ity: benign neglect. This orchid plant (and several others I have) get nothing but a bit of water when I think of it ... no food, no misting, no nuthin'! Nothing but a bit of telepathic encouragement from me, and lo and behold: yearly blooms! Yay.
your orchids are gorgeous!! my plant neglect is not so benign... but i do have two amarylis plants that forgive me and bloom every year. hooray for plants that don't require a green thumb....
Wildly in love with my husband B., former guardian of the late, lamented Miss Tallulah Mae (the wonder dog), adorer of all canines, dilettantish crafter, obsessed with birds, vintage shopper, lover of libraries, neophyte cellist, and foziewisp.

How beautiful! You certainly got a "green thumb" from Betty Max & Daddy. You know I am not allowed to even breathe on plants!! XXXX
