The last of the orchids is still blooming. I could learn how the shape of it's pot is working well to give it ready nutrition. It's just a bowl with a hole in the bottom!
Today's quote:
No government can love a child, and no policy can substitute for a family's care. But at the same time, government can either support or undermine families as they cope with moral, social, and economic stresses of caring for children.

...you sure are successful with orchids.
ReplyDeleteThanks Tom...I figure I'm just lucky. I sure have no great knowledge about them!
DeleteSue got an orchid for MDay. She doesn't have the best lick, but it looks good now.
ReplyDeleteI guess the only thing I've learned is water it just once a week, very minimal amount.
DeleteYour orchids are so beautiful. You really have some lovely flowers there.
ReplyDeleteThe ones in the cauldron were gifts for our May Day ritual. I am looking all over for some new ones this week!
DeleteBarbara, Love the orchid! We've had a couple of them over the years that just bloomed and rebloomed with minimal attention. Love the deep red geranium blossoms from yesterday as well! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
ReplyDeleteYes yes, so glad you all had good results with the minimal attention method. It's pretty amazing!
DeleteBeautiful orchid. I bought my first orchid recently I hope it survives. Take care, enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteMinimal attention, water once a week, just a bit. What color is yours?
DeleteThe orchids are so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThanks...this little plant sure put out a lot of blooms. I love seeing them every day!
DeleteNever was successful with orchids beyond the first blooming. By the way I think I found that deep red geranium today. Those and other annuals are safely in the barn tonight because we have a freeze warning tonight.
ReplyDeleteGood you found another geranium that's that deep red. Glad you put it in shelter from the freeze. Your gardens outside will hopefully be ok with the freeze.
