 Orchids!

i've always had a fascination with orchids, but i'll be damned if i ever got one to grow right. i like to see plants' roots, and that doesn't usually fare well with any orchids i've been given in the past.
BUT, i finally went out and got a little one i came across at home depot, and it's actually growing a new leaf, so i must be doing something right.

It is a species of intemperance within itself, for it goes beyond the bounds of reason in that it attempts to control a man's appetite by legislation, and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes. A Prohibition law strikes a blow at the very principles upon which our government was founded." - Abraham Lincoln

Here is a picture of a parasitic orchid, growing off the side of a money tree in my yard. Looks like little ladies in yellow dresses. Bloomed about 3 months ago.
