The orchid that Dan got me for Valentine's Day Last year has rebloomed! I trimmed the roots in mid December, and that seemed to give it new life. I'm proud because when he showed up with the orchid, I was worried that the buds it had would die, and then that would be it - I would kill it. But it's survived!
This, for some reason, makes me really really happy!
I understand completely! I have had orchids for over 30 years and I still get a little thrill every time one reblooms.
ReplyDeleteCongrats! Yours is BEAUTIFUL!
My son is a great gardener. He was on the Horticulture team in HS and they took first. He has NEVER gotten an orchid to re bloom. GOOD JOB ALLYSON
ReplyDeleteSo cool. Once in a while I've had orchids rebloom, but not consistently. One friend hung his outside in the summer from tree branches. That seemed to work for him.
