Default I did it again..........

Hello...

Speaking of addiction....

Last weekend, that was our annual orchid show here in Montreal.
I HAD to buy:

Dendrobium kingianum
Phal luddemanniana
Phal equestris var alba ( spiking )
Phal cornu-cervi var alba ( also spiking )
Phal cochlearis
Phal Super Stupid X Golden Sun ( 3 for $5.00 )
A voodoo lilly

I`m sooooo addicted.......

Unfortunately, that admission only works when attempting to rid oneself
of drug addiction or alcoholism. It will not start you on the path to
recovery from orchid addiction.

Nice try. Sorry!


I would only relapse anyway. ;-)

I went to Lowe's to pick up some leaf lettuce seedling. That's all I
needed and wanted. I wandered through he greenhouse and spotted two new
phals! Oh I'm a sucker for phals. One was yellow with some small purple
petals around the center-bottom of the flowers. The flowers are large.
The other had a branched stalk with many smaller flowers in a nice solid
purple like one of those lost in a storm a few years ago! They were
$12.99 each. And of course I had to take another 1/2 price Dendrobium.
What was I thinking?

This is a terrible addiction...... terrible! Did I mention I also
bought them their own small 10" box fan to keep the air gently moving in
their spot in the sunroom? I'm an orchid junkie.

When I got home and started placing them in the sunroom I noticed some
shriveled pseudo-bulbs I couldn't bear to toss out have small sprouts on
them!!!!!!!!
