You have no need to apologise my friend :hb: just as long as your okay is all that matters.
Sometimes life can keep me away from this site as much as I want to be here.
Oh well done to you.
They look great Michelle ... :bravo:
they look as though they're relieved to have got rid of the weight they were holding
I'm sure you've breathed new life into them and thank you for showing us.
Indeed, next is setting
Streetie up for her Summer location outside at my Mother's home. Since she was outdoor last year on the street she is accustomed to that life. She will need new soil as what she is in looks old and tired ... like some of those who challenge Michelle's hotness in the
Last Post thread.
I didn't realise that
Snowy had such a long rest? thanks for telling me this, I can now worry less about
Orkie being so sleepy
They need their rest time. I bought
Snowie in November 2019 and she dropped her last blooms in early 2020. It was not until this past March that she woke-up. I had long thought she was just about to go into decline but it never really happened unlike some of my other early orchids. I do give those lights a lot of credit as I think the orchids really like them.
That flower lady was very thoughtful to give you the Orchid, that must've made your day. I'm so glad you had noticed this poor Orchid sat waiting for a new home and luckily for you the kind flower lady was there at the right time
Poor little thing. Her blooms never caught anyone's attention and she was on her last legs. These are the orchids that really move me. Indeed, she has a new chance in a home full of loved orchids.
Indeed the lady was very kind and this orchid I have named
Carly.
It was good of you to let the flower lady see the image of your plant tower, I bet she will always remember you as liking plants .. .. she might come across some other unwanted plants in the future and remember you.
I don't want her to think I'm just talking to her for free rescue orchids but if she ever has one that is destined to be pinned I will gladly take them. I wanted to let her know this plant will be going to a good home. It's no different as if she were a dog or cat.
Poor Orchid needing a big drink. She does look quite healthy though, don't you think? All she needs now is some TLC and I know she will get that in your home. I loved this story Michelle and it will make for another chapter in your book .
She did indeed and she gets misted nearly daily to help bring her back. Indeed, some TLC. This is one for the books.
Now all I need is to find myself a kind hearted flower lady in TESCOS
So true. I have learned that if you find a distressed plant these stores are willing to drop the price. Now hotness does help, or at least that is what I have found.
Is TESCO the only place in your area that you frequent that has orchids?
OMG! He looks like he's limbering up to punish me :floor::floor:
30 day in the
Telly Talk Jail!
The Budgie Judge did grant you time to work at the
TT Cafe but you have to report to the jail after your shift.
I prefer "
Budgie Judge" though
Too late, these Budgies are strict and that snail massacre really moved the court and an example had to be made of you. In addition to the 30 day sentence, you have to perform Hard Labour at the
Telly Talk Stone Quarry on your days off from the cafe. Michelle will watch her step after hearing about this. Hey, at least the weather is nice this time of year.
This is great news! I'm so happy to read that you've had the first jab
yaay! I hope you didn't feel unwell after having it.
Btw- Did the Nurse not faint at the sight of your hot toned arms? ...Lol
I had no reaction which is good. The nurse didn't faint but complemented me on the toned arms and seemed to want to feel my "guns" but I batted her away and just said "get on with this jab, this is not some sex show ". The sometime down side of incredible hotness. :fp:
Just three weeks? wow that's quick, good on you. I had my first jab over a month ago and I think it will be another month before I get the second.
It is odd that the times differ. I got a Pfizer vaccine which has a three week interval. Others I know have had Moderna which is four weeks. Johnson & Johnson was on jab only. I get the impression there my have to be booster jabs later. Did you get a card with your jab? I read that the EU will now allow those who have had the vaccine in the US to travel to Europe this summer. Progress but so much of the world is so far deep in this crisis.
Hope is still with us, but only just..some of her stems started to wither from the top downwards, so I've taken some extreme action. I've carefully clipped her stems back to where the new leaves are growing ... it was all I could think of to do. So she's now looking very bare, Mr L almost threw her away the other day
luckily I was there and stopped him, I don't think he will dare go near her again
Oh no! Mr L must not have faith in
Hope's recovery. All I can recommend it to let her see some sunlight and to keep her soil damp but not soaked. My four sit in the window sill this time of year and enjoy it. They dry out quicker but I know their habits. Come on
Hope, pull through. You've made it this far.
Wouldn't it be great if we could share our plants? ... but then, we kind of do that, on here
als:
Agreed! I so enjoy our plant talks. If it were not for you and
Orkie I would not have my tower of Orchids. Same too with my Poinsettias. BTW, how is
Tiny Tim and your garden?
....
..... thanks for the help 
let me guess, I'm good at guessing..Lol
... could it be...
