Tish's Orchids




These photos of reader Tish's orchids are really nice. Bromeliads have a mysterious quality to them, don't they? They seem very feminine for some reason. I'm glad they aren't just for tropical paradises anymore, but, I know little about them. They sure are purdy!

I've always wanted to grow an orchid, but I'm been afraid to buy one and then have it die on me. I've got a pretty green thumb, but I don't always do so well with the fussier plants.

Just beautiful Tish...you make me jealous. My hubby bought me one about 3 years ago and it was in full bloom...it has never bloomed since and I consider myself pretty good with plants and flowers but this one is a challenge for me. It's alive and healthy looking, if you like nice lucious leaves, but that's it. I feed it orchid food but it has never flowered again.
Loved your pics!
