Winter Flowers II

My orchids usually begin blooming in late January, but they started early this year.


Can you see the petals sparkle?!



One of my plants never quit blooming all year since beginning in early 2015! Each blossom can last several months, but this lively plant kept sending out new buds to open before the last had fallen. I've never been given that special gift before in my dozen years of orchid tending.


And not only has this plant kept in blossom... it also grew a baby, or "keiki" (Hawaiian for "baby".) I haven't had that joy for many years either.
