how long did it take you to find the phalaenopsis pic? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Well at first I was going to post the Bortomotopolyese but thought that the Fayendulip would be more appropriate. Unfortunately, there arent many good pictures of them on the web.

So I just decided to post the phalaenopsis which is just like I gotcha in real life! =)

a simple bromeliad would have been nice.
and it woulda kept its color year round.

i checked it today... as predicted, the blooms
are already starting to wilt. this was unavoidable,
as most orchids are frail in arkansas weather
(and the atmospheric changes in house temperature).

i really think the wilting is due to the fact
that that no-good scott had it drowning in water.
i emptied the contents of the container in my
sink and i am currently attempting to salvage
the blooms by letting it breathe...

cross yer fingers, folks.

also let it be said that this is a main reason
why scott shoulda never opened his own florist.

as of this morning.... one bloom remains. =(

this doesn't look good

Put it in sunlight and give it some water and do some other things to it that make things live.

Save it!

ummm... the blooms would fall off anyway. it is
an ORCHID, dingy...
the plant will continue to survive regardless
of its blooms.
its kinda funny how people judge flowering plants
by the sheer superficiality around the blooms.
