That first orchid


This orchid was my birthday present from Mary 2 or 3 years ago. It's so long since it flowered, I can't remember what it's going to be like. The flower spike has been developing for the last 2 months at least. I think the first flower is ready to open tomorrow. I thought the same yesterday - and the day before. You just can't rush orchids. I like them for that.
