Friday Orchids

We have hundreds of orchid photographs from the March shows and sales. This group of pictures is from the Maryland Orchid Society Show and Sale at the Maryland Home and Garden Show at the Timonium Fairgrounds. If you enjoy orchids, this is the time of the year to see displays of every type and color that you could imagine.

This weekend is a good time to visit Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square Pennsylvania to see the new Spring Exhibit. Those that wish to purchase orchids should attend the Orchid Extravaganza orchid sale this weekend.

Blue Poppies are in bloom now!

"Longwood's famed Blue Poppies are back! These elusive plants are usually found in Scotland, Alaska and the Himalayas, but you need only to travel to Longwood to see these show-stopping beauties." www.longwoodgardens.org

Those are just incredible pictures. Gets us all in the mood for Spring, especially us in the Cleveland area that are just freezing right now.

Good morning Roy. The only thing that would make this a better day is more people reporting better weather in their part of the country. Your photos will bring them joy until good weather arrives!

Roy,

If orchids could talk, here's what they'd be saying:

"Here comes that man Roy with his camera!"

"Hey Roy, over here... see how shiny I am - I'm different than all the rest."

"Roy! Roy! Come look at me, don't I look pretty?"

"Psst, Roy, over here, quick before the light fades - get my picture!"

"Oh Mr. Roy, Mr Roy, how do you like the way I look today, I got all dressed up just for you!

"Hey Roy, check out my spots, do you think they are normal?"

"Roy! Roy! Roy! Quick, take my picture and post it on ActiveRain!'

"Roy! I want to be famous on that Blog of yours... please take my picture, I'll say F-L-O-W-E-R-S!

Have a great day Roy!

Good morning to all. Thanks for your comments. We have sunshine in Maryland after a lot of rain.

Thanks, Patricia for your your thoughts on what flowers would say to me. Do you think that one of us needs therapy sessions?

Roy, as always, beautiful photos of Orchards! I think desert flowers are on the opposite end of the spectrum of flowers so here is a picture for you! Have a great day!
