Orchids

Orchids come in all shapes and forms but the bottom line is they really make you smile at the least. As soon as you see an orchid flower, it would make your day. The good thing too is orchid plants in general, are not really hard to take care of. They would rather take care of themselves providing you give them enough water and a little bit of fertilizer once every couple of months and then wait. One day, a surprise awaits. A bud at first and then as it opens it will be transformed into the most beautiful thing you’ve ever seen. I always had that kind of surprises because I had some orchids that I have been keeping for quite some time and some make it to bloom and sad to say some will not whether you did everything you can or not. Its just the way it is.

    Nasturtium is grown mostly for their beautiful, assorted color flowers. I’ve seen mostly yellow and orange sometimes pink but I have never seen a deep red mahogany color until now. I bought the seeds from a nursery and immediately sowed them. I placed them in a hanging planter hoping to see flowers trailing when it…
