So I love Orchids. I find them exotic and alluring. I keep one in my kitchen that is a ravishing purple and white. It makes me feel like I’m cooking in some lovely foreign place. Well, it probably would if I cooked. The night I made cookies I felt exotic and lovely. Okay, so sometimes I feel a little less like a harried Master’s student when I’m microwaving my dinner. That's more accurate.
I found a little miracle the other day. The Orchid from last year that I thought I killed…
… has sent out a shoot and is popping out another.
I just heard on NPR a few days ago too that this is the best time to replant them, so I am going to replant this beauty and see what happens. I actually replanted my purple and white orchid when it wasn’t growing and I’m afraid I hurt it because the flowers are already wilting and it’s barely been any time. But look! This one is growing! Made my day.
