I have a soft spot in my heart for orchids . . . . we have them growing in our yard in Boca Raton Florida.

Good luck and success.

Thanks for the beautiful orchid. I wanted to let you know that I got in the habit of disabling comments on reblogs a while back to encourage people to comment on the original bloggers post instead. It seems that may not be proper AR etiquette now. YIKES! So sorry!

Hello Roy,  Mom loved orchids and we had an orchid nursury in our small town when growing up.  Every Mother's day would be a walk to bring Mom home yet another orchid.  If she ever tired of them she did not let on.  Mark

I will rely on you to determine the proper etiquette relating to comments on re-blogs. Until we know for sure, you might as well take advantage of the points you will receive for comments on re-blogs.

Claude Monet is one of my favorite artists.  His work is a testament to a love of flowers.

Orchids are supreme in any flower garden or bouquet delivered to one's home. I hope many people will be receiving Orchids this Valentine's Day!

Your orchids are just beautiful Roy! I love the color. The petals are dripping in nature's glory!
