[QUOTE="Long Lashes, post: 261943, member: 41"] The official name of the colour is " cappuccino"" .. Lol! it does make me laugh the names which the car industry use for colours . My white car wasn't just called "white". ... it was known as "Frozen White" :lmao: :lol: I think it must be great to be able to write :) What a treat to see these :ty: Oh my goodness, she is a stunning colour ,she looks so lush :gotcha: her rich colour makes me think of "velvet", so perhaps [B][COLOR=rgb(147, 101, 184)]Velvet Magnolia [/COLOR][/B]is another idea? I bet she was relieved to have all that packaging taken of her when you got her home, it must make a nice change for you to start off with a very healthy Orchid, she's a lucky plant to have been chosen by you. [COLOR=rgb(40, 50, 78)][B]Lady M, Neptune, Winter Star and Phoebe[/B][/COLOR]. all look so happy too, with glossy leaves and pretty blooms, its great to see them :D I would imagine that most people are not aware of this, I know I wasn't until you told me. I'm sure you will do one day ;) Thank you. So far, so good. Oh I do hope this happens. If[B] [/B]I manage to keep [B]Hope[/B] going until next Christmas (in my dreams...lol) .... would that earn her a mention in your future best selling book? :dance: I took a couple today, they're not great, but it gives you an idea... [SPOILER="Springtime"] These are some pots under our bird-table. Unfortunately, the Crocuses have closed up, they don't like over-cast chilly days, like we have had today. [IMG]https://i.ibb.co/HxTY9Sj/pots.jpg[/IMG] These Violas hanging on our garage have lasted all the way through winter, they look fragile, but they're tough as old boots :box: [IMG]https://i.ibb.co/LJ847kR/DIGITAL-CAMERA.jpg[/IMG] Not much to see below, but please note the weed-free soil :cool1 ... my nails are ruined..Lol! When I was weeding I must have unearthed a worm city, worms were everywhere :yikey: The pot on the right which looks empty...isn't really empty..Lol I've just planted some summer bulbs. I need to to take some photos when the sun is out...everything always looks so much nicer with the sun. . [IMG]https://i.ibb.co/MCyW3VG/pots2.jpg[/IMG] [/SPOILER] Mainly the usual .... Mr Blackbird and his friendly wife, Sparrows, the Robin and a pair of collared Doves. Do you see many birds over the winter Michelle? Lol! ...poor Dusty, I hope I didn't traumatise him. I will never surrender my [B]N1H[/B] status ... NEVER EVER! [IMG]http://smileys.smilchat.net/smiley/expressive/agree/fille-non.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
