Variety Pack

 I can understand how folks become obsessed with orchids...they are such amazing flowers with seemingly endless varieties. 

They will never take the place of dahlias in my affections, however. Dahlias forever!

Hard to beat Mother Nature...

Winning Bid

When you win the largest and heaviest item at the silent auction...

It's super cool up close--orchids (3 kinds), bromeliads, and tillandsias, oh my!

Wow

 Amazing, yes? Orchids...

Do-Over

I'm pretty excited that this beauty rebloomed...they must survive with benign neglect around here. I put them outside after they bloom and water occasionally--and that's it! Survival of the fittest (and loveliest!).

Complexity

I never cease to be amazed at the intricacies of flowers...this phalaenopsis has got it going on! Lovely!

Benign Neglect Wins the Day (Again!)

Can you hear them? They're singing "I Will Survive (despite the fact that all we ever get is water once in a while)."
