Flower Flaunt on this Good Friday.

Happy Easter everyone!  It's a long weekend for us here in Australia, and it's the start of our semester break from school as well.  I'm heading off for a little while to enjoy the short mid-semester holiday, but before I go I thought I'd just show a couple of the rather simple but elegant Orchids that are blooming today.



Dendrobium bigibbum







Dendrobium crumenatum

      Yes Lorraine, my little collection of Orchids are all sitting out in my shadehouse garden and they love it. Happy Easter to you as well!

      I don't have many Orchids, Ingmarie, but I do love the few I have. The first term at school was quite long and very busy, so I'm really enjoying the time off.

      Wishing you a blessed Easter too, Lona. I don't have many Orchids, and they're not really all that flash, but I rather like the simplicity of the few I have.

      We are very fortunate to be able to grow so many plants outdoors over here. Of course, my Orchids are protected a little by the shadecloth which filters out the harshest of the sun's rays.

    Bernie, the orchids are lovely. I am not very successful with them indoors.

      I don't have many at all, Eileen, and I don't really do much to care for them I have to admit. They really do quite well looking after themselves.
