My kingdom for a Greenhouse

You might have been wondering why my blog has been so dis-joined, well I have had computer problems, now I have to learn a new system, which I hope will make my life easier, so far, "no"
But I digress.
This is a beautiful orchid in my friend's green house.  I do not know the name of the orchid, but I had one as well, only mine died, but my friend's in his green house has been spectacular.  I think I better win a lottery so that I can build this green house.
Open to suggestions.

Tis the Season

This time of year orchids should spike.  I have about 7 orchids in spike - I am hoping that they will bloom for Thanksgiving. 
Having company is a joy and Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday and keeping fingers crossed that these orchids will bloom.  I need in all the guest rooms.
I really do not know what is going to bloom, but I did notice that one of the large orchids that was repotted by Jim has spikes - Can not wait to see what comes up.

My sister has orchids she pays no attention to, and low and behold it blooms.
Everywhere you go in L.A. some shop is displaying orchids.  It is such a pleasure to see this.

This is a Pansy orchid that is really beautiful.  This was one of the more difficult ones to grow but patience is a virtue.
More to come.
