This is one of my favorites. I took it in 2002, Coco was
creeping in my garden, doing her thing and I caught her.

The Orchids are beautiful!
I've always had a fear of orchids,although just about anything I have grows like crazy,I have tons of house-plants.They look so delicate and pretty,but maybe they are not.

It is my understanding that they are quite finicky plants and have special needs. Maybe you could share some tips with us, DL? I was on the verge of buying one the other day when this woman appoached me and pointed out that what I thought were buds of new flowers were actually bloomed out flowers gone to seed, and that if I know nothing about orchids that I would probably kill this one before it had the chance to flower again They're awfully expensive, so I definitely want to know a little more about them before I take a shot at growing them, but they're so beautiful I just can't resist trying!

I find the Phalaenopsis Orchid is really easy, I'm not that great with flowers but have had a great time with these. Read up on their needs mostly potting mix, right light and humidity but they are not that bad.
