I look at the price of 'sneakers' these days..and think..that's 4 or 5 orchids I could buy!
Make up...another useless waste of money...the VERY expensive support stockings I wore while I was a flight attendant...If I got one days use out of them I was doing well...If I only had a run in one leg...I would cut that off..and combine it with another amputee...and get DOUBLE support !... Many of these plants were just seedlings a few years ago..I still try and buy a mix of plants from seedlings up to near blooming and occasionally, one in bloom. I'm always thrilled when I can get a 'buy one ..get one' deal at the super market because it means more money in the budget for plants, pots and the big ticket item..the mix!
Elaine, your NOID is gorgeous! how typical that it turns it's back on you!...I'm on the edge of my office chair waiting on your Cinnamon Stick...someone posted a beauty on the Florida Orchid Growers FaceBook page the other day..
