I Made Flowers

Sometimes I make flower arrangements for folks and I thought I would show them off here. This one was for a friends birthday. So bright and fun. Lasted for over a week.

 

And these were for Ben's mom's birthday.

Spring Has Sprung

Spring is the best time ever. I have freesia bulbs under planted in my container Meyer lemon tree. For a few glorious weeks my white and red/orange freesia bloom like mad and fill my porch with the light lemony scent that makes me want to live outside for a while. They don't last long so I pick them for inside and for my office as well. Flowers are amazing.

Orchid Rebloom 2014

I've been such a terrible plant mom in the past year so it's amazing, but three of my orchids rebloomed without in spite of myself.

First up: this little rescue from years ago. This is it's second rebloom and of all things it's white this time where is was pink last time! So weird.

Second up: The Epi. Green Hornet that has bloomed every year since I bought it! Each year and new bulb pops up and it blooms. Like clockwork. And damn it's a cute little, weird orchid.

Third up: My Den. Aussie Chip that has been a trooper and rebloomed each year. It's small and adorable.

I moved them away from my fruit on the counter to help the blooms stay on longer. So I have a lovely little orchid garden I can see from my living room.
