My orchids are in full bloom. This one my son in law Ben picked out for me a few years ago for Mother's Day...
and this one my daughter Kate picked out the year before, again for Mother's Day. Thanks kids! They are the gifts that keep on giving!
Oddly, my Christmas cactus are just blooming now. More pictures to follow as i have several colors getting ready to bloom.
more orchid goodness...
and my African Violets are also blooming. These were my Grandmother Mary's favorite houseplants. They were like her children and every windowsill was loaded with them in their little pots. Every time one of mine blooms, it's like a visit from my Gram...
So, even tho Spring is still a month or more away(and i consider the slightest sign of Spring to be the first real day of Spring!) I can dream about it in my little house. Time to make plans for the gardens!

Really beautiful! I don't know anyone that grows orchids. I thought they were difficult to grow. You must be quite a horticulturist!
Good Morning Julie! I am not a trained horticulturist at all. I just set these little orchid plants on my windowsill and let them alone. Water when dry and feed them every once in a while, and they reward me with flowers that last for months and months! I think a lot of people are afraid of orchids, but they are just like any other plant really...Give them a try!
What beauty lurks there in your windows my friend! Thank you for sharing.
