Pushing orchids

I have been very busy this week as the Furniture Market is on in High, High Point (as I call it) in No. Carolina but I have a bit of time to continue my saga.
I was so enjoying my orchids and the work it was saving me that I started pushing orchids on to other members of my family, who suddendly decided it was their idea.  I did not care as long as we were all getting the enjoyment.  I was now being asked for advise although, "it was not my idea".  We started giving each other orchids for special occasions, and I can tell you orchids made any room sophisticated and elegant.  However, I do not think it would go with Country style or Lodge.-have not tried with that style as it is DEFINITELY not my look.
At this time, I started travelling the world for business which took me to the Far East.  I remeber being at the airports in Singapore, Jakarta, Bangkok, Hong Kong and could not believe the orchids that were displayed in the walk-ways to the baggage claim area.  I thought "wow" this must be the area to buy them - did not realize there were so many---------------varities.  Thought I am going to beat the system and add some of the unusual orchids to my collection.  I did not get very far.  Too much paper-work and not enough time.
