When I was 19, my friend asked me what I wanted for my birthday.. I told her I wanted an orchid.. Back then they were somewhat expensive.. Well, I didn't know that as I hadn't priced them out, but when my girlfriend did, she decided it was more than she could spend. She got me a Spathiphyllum (Moana Loa plant) instead, which I still have. The orchid would have been long dead, but the Spathiphyllum lives on.
