Me too!
I buy a healthy flowering plant for $20 and it will live for about 4

I figure $5/month is a reasonable price for enjoying those beauties.
They pose nicely for me to photograph them too.


There are two large orchid growers near me that sell at the farmers
markets, blooming Phals in 4" pots are $8. It seems like every office
and home has a couple of orchids.
