It is a product of the elements it is exposed in each season with no help from me. They are not particularly lush plants until they begin to bloom. I wish you luck with yours.Meemshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16341998120938921741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3160717311376074400.post-76141673685855410062012-02-24T06:37:28.513-05:002012-02-24T06:37:28.513-05:00Hey Meems, love your Butterfly Orchid!

I got mine last summer, and mine isn't looking so good. I'm trying to figure out if that's the natural tendency, or if I'm in real trouble. I have mine mounted on fern bark, and it's living with all of its cousins on a crowded patio. Could you give me some tips on what I need to be doing tobootsieandmimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09766842531804580702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3160717311376074400.post-18298819260631866292009-06-21T14:39:13.287-04:002009-06-21T14:39:13.287-04:00Your veggies are just beautiful.

I planted a Black Cherry tomatoes this year, so I'm looking forward to tasting them! <br />The swallowtail caterpillars are every bit a beautiful as the butterflies they become, in my humble opinion.

My grandgirls have visited us almost every summer 'til this year. They are now teens and too busy. The oldest one is working and the younger one is playing softball.

Your last pickings are still looking good. So are those orchids. Like you I think they should be admired as often as possible. And your Grands in the garden. How could life be more appreciated than through the eyes and hands of the Grands. I hope you have a wonderful weekend too.Lisa at Greenbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743973292900758183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3160717311376074400.post-62753038618894814972009-06-19T09:41:17.489-04:002009-06-19T09:41:17.489-04:00YUM!!!
