My Phalaenopsis Moth Orchid has been flowering, non-stop, for 15 months.Ah... springtime.... Will it ever really get here? Drove down to the valley today to have my weekly battle of wills with horse, Tina. She's finally starting to like me! But, that doesn't really have anything to do with me. Everybody has their price. Hers is a piece of peppermint candy. Ever since I figured that one out, she's been putty in my hands.
Came home to a sun-filled living room and a gorgeous, gorgeous orchid that may never stop flowering...
And... I barely even noticed her because I was too busy wishing I lived in the valley. I'm what you call a fair weather friend. The second ski season is over I want to jump ship. Move down the mountain! Into the valley, where it's warm and sunny and the bulbs are blooming!Alas, 'tis 8 long weeks 'til this girl's planting season begins. Tick... tock... tick... tock...
PS: If you fell for that line about my Orchid flowering for 15 long months, congratulations! You're my April fool. She's been flowering for 3 months though I still think that's pretty impressive.
