My Orchid is in Buds again.......
Last year I reported I just purchased it and it bloomed for months.......Never wilted at all.

When it quit , I followed directions which said cut that back to 2 inches.OK.
Maybe 4 months ago.. Not sure.. It was growing roots outside the pot .......I got a larger one and put it in there with some more charcoal mix, purchased from tkooper.

Now it is getting buds again.......Now the reason for the excitement, is , I never owned one before and thought I would buy one .. tee hee ...............I succeeded.

dodge................Happy New year. idea

Thanks Angelblossom,

It sure does turn heads in my house.....It did cost me $8.00........But I never owned one, and thought it was worth having . Just for the heck of it ......Never regretted it .....HD loves it too........He is hung up on all my flowers.

Now the experts are saying , folks who have flowers in their homes , are happier people.. ha ha
Look at all the happy folks on gardenhelper..

HOoray hooray......We found the USA.
