I brought the flower box residents, including the Geranium matriarch instructors, into the Center for the season. Not to be outdone by the showy orchids, the Grande Dame geraniums started blooming again. Their only comment: "We wanted the orchids to see how easy it is to bloom..and frankly we want them to quit being so 'slow to glow'. Orchid up! ladies and get with the flowering show like us!"
In the beginning, I took on a sickly orchid...and then another orchid...and another. I have discovered that orchids have personalities. I have learned to speak in "orchid tongue" language. I now own an Orchid Boarding Center for wayward orchids. Follow along as I recount semi-believable stories about life in my orchid center....some people call me the "orchid whisperer."

I brought the flower box residents, including the Geranium matriarch instructors, into the Center for the season.

Their only comment: "We wanted the orchids to see how easy it is to bloom..and frankly we want them to quit being so 'slow to glow'. Orchid up! ladies and get with the flowering show like us!"
