pictures shared by my sister from Longwood Gardens. Orchid fest was astounding.
A feast for the eyes. Spring hope to brighten still dreary winter days.
How lovely! I am an outdoor gardener, not an indoor one. However, last year I received not one, not two, but three orchids as gifts. None of them still have blossoms, but they are still alive, and I dutifully water them via ice cubes most weekends. I'll know I've made it if they ever bloom again!

What beautiful flowers! They brighten my day. Thanks.
