Orchids in Los Angeles

I have been in L.A. , these past few weeks and the  abundance of orchids have been staggering.
I keep reminding myself this is the perfect climate for orchids.
At my sister's house I found an orchid about to bloom with no real care given.  I questioned this but the answer was "it just grew" I brought it into the house so we could enjoy for the new Year and the balance of the Holidays.
Before I leave I will take a picture and post it in the next few days.
Every where you go, especially in the higer end stores in Beverly Hills, stores display beautiful arrangements of orchids.  I did not realize how popular they had become.  But please do not ever buy the ones the growers suddenly have decided to dye - that is disgusting and from beauty it goes to ugly.
