It's anudder bloomin' Friday!

This cattleya orchid is about 8 years old and has only bloomed once before a few years ago. It was Home depot special.



Welcome to blooming Friday! The frangipani is beginning to bloom, the bougainvillea a drought lover is in its glory. For more blooming Friday please take a stroll over to Katarina from roses and stuff. Have a great weekend my friends!

  7. You mean to say frangipani is not flowering all year round in your area? But here it does, and because its habit is like that, we should be guilty we forgot all about it.
