Oh, look at those buds!

The scheduled TLC I was talking about earlier seem to work, look at these adorable little orchid buds:

I´m so giddy - it´s like being pregnant again!

Except this time, it´s not me losing my figure. I can follow this development with the grace I never had totally intact.

That sentence made absolutely no sense.

I do feel extremly happy though - it will be the first time I´ve managed to get an orchid to bloom on my own!

To be continued..!

Jag förstår din lycka. Jag har aldrig lyckats, de är för svåra för mig.

Ha det gott

Hahaha! Grattis! Orkidéer är fktiskt väldigt lättskötta, det gäller bara att glömma bort dem lite lagom mycket!

Mvh

Great! During the summer, I go out my orchids in the garden in the shade. It's good for them.

Grattis! Jag älskar mina orkidéer och de får lov att bo på våra fönsterbrädor trots att de inte riktigt stämmer överens i färgerna... :)

I enjoy you. I haven't had an orchid plant for a long time but I remember the excitement of seeing what looked like sticks bloom again. Not sure if I felt pregnant again, but as I said I enjoy you and the way you describe things. :)

shirley said...

Yay! It's the little victories, I know. Can't wait to see it bloom!

It takes a special talent and love to have an orchid bloom. Kudos!

Well done! My mom is some kind of orchid whisperer. My great aunt is always buying orchids in bloom and then giving them to my mom once they finish :)

May said...
