Picked up a new orchid at the Garden Show a few months ago and it finally bloomed. I really like it, not what i'm used to seeing in the shops. #orchid #houseplant

I've tried growing Spanish Moss several times with no luck. A friend gave me a piece about 6 months ago and it's not only growing, it's blooming. #gardening #houseplant

Current project: removal of grass, digging up the dozens of large rocks in the soil, adding amendments and planting (soon) new flowers and shrubs.

Finally got around to that Dwarf Cymbidium my neighbor gave me. I found 7 viable divisions. Poor plant was so pot bound and neglected but it's going to become several beautiful plants now.
