I have friends who plant beautiful bulbs that pop up in the spring. They're gorgeous and I might plant some bulbs some day but until then, I look forward to my orchid blooming! It comes into bloom around February or March and I wait all year long for the delicate blossoms. This is a moth orchid and as fragile as the blooms look, they'll last for 1 to 2 months!! I don't know of any other flower that lasts as long. Last year I was able to force a second bloom after the first round died off so that gave me a solid 3 months to enjoy. I love the tropical islands and maybe that's where the love of orchids stems. I need to get a few different colors because they come in greens, yellows, orange, pinks, reds, and whites. I snapped pictures this year because I think they're so pretty. They make me think of summer, sitting on a beach somewhere, and sipping a fruity drink. Aaahhhh and have a great day!

Oh, they're so beautiful! They take my breath away. I think I've been enjoying the flowers more this year than in any other year. Your picture is stunning!
I love orchids and lilies. Enjoy your flowers! The only ones we have here so far (in bloom at least) are some little violets out back, but even those are pretty.
Nice play on words "thats where the love of orchids stems"
Great picture.
So, how was K registration?
