I FINALLY did and look what I was missing. WOW.. FANTASTIC painting and ORCHIDS I love them. Always went to the orcid show in CA the the South Coast plaza and owned a few.. Tempermental bugars. I only brought one with me when we moved to OR. It has bloomed once in our sunroom since we moved here... I think It needs more mositure around it. They dont like their feet sitting in water and they dont like alot of watering but they like being set on pebbles with water in them just not so they soak it up in the roots as they rot. You feed them when they arent blooming. Thats about all I know. <BR/>Lovely blog today.<BR/>Cris in ORAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-77121909790145987412007-04-24T12:40:00.000-04:002007-04-24T12:40:00.000-04:00Back in the 1980s we were doing an ad for a heatin...Back in the 1980s we were doing an ad for a heating company and we used an orchid for the photo shoot.
