Message: <blockquote data-quote="Michelle Stevens" data-source="post: 267068" data-attributes="member: 11">Sorry be being away last week. I missed being here. I did prune two of my four Poinsettias last Thursday. The Little White Princess and the Crimson Duchess where pruned as they were getting leggy.[spoiler]<img src="https://i.ibb.co/kMfPkGm/poinsettia041521.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The before and after of the pruning. I left some on as a crutch during their recovery. They really needed it, especially Duchess. I did this at my Mother's home as she had the space. On the right is them about to ride back home with me that night after work.[/spoiler]Poor Orkie but she needs a rest like all orchids. My Snowy rest for well over a year until she suddenly woke up in March. They need their rest time.She seems happy with you my friend. If it were not for her I don't know it I would have fallen into the Orchid hobby. I hope she finds a companion. Having mentioned that I got another free orchid from the flower lady at my grocery store on Monday.[spoiler]<img src="https://i.ibb.co/V3XP4cL/orchid041921.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />[/spoiler]They had two remaining Orchids from Easter and this one I noticed for weeks. I noticed it was still there on Monday and looked so poorly. Blooms withered and leaves drooped. I though no one will ever pay $23 for this poor thing but it was 7AM and the flower lady was not there and I just thought to myself this may be the last time I see this plant. I got my groceries and paid for them was leaving when I spotted the flower lady. She said she had no orchids and just as I was about to mention an attempt a negotiated reduced price for this little plant soul she said she had one and took the tag off and give it to me free of charge. I showed her images of Plant Tower full of orchids and told her that the two she gave me in September, Comet and Cupid, were doing fine. This new unnamed orchid was dehydrated and needs close attention but should bounce back. She has white blooms with some pink in the inner peddles. #21 overall and #19 currently.Pfft!  <img src="https://smileyshack.files.wordpress.com/2011/09/swhatever6.gif?w=150&h=135"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":huh:" title="Huh    :huh:" data-shortname=":huh:" />Indeed they are. Prepare for prison attire. The budgies don't enjoy being mocked.<img src="https://giffiles.alphacoders.com/233/23303.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />It's Your Honour to you 'Lashes. :shy6:Very good. I'm eager to see who it is. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />I got my first Covid-19 vaccine jab yesterday in my left arm. Michelle don't like people poking and jabbing her lovely, toned muscles but it didn't bother me this time as it was for the overall good. Back in three weeks for me hot arm jabbing again.Good to hear. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />Poor Hope. I just hope the last week has been better for her. I do hope she pulls through after such a rough Winter. I so wish I lived closer as you would have many gift Orchids and I would do my best to help your Poinsettias. At least we have the World Wide Web.<img src="http://www.allsmileys.com/files/sweetim-communicate/6278.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":best:" title="Best    :best:" data-shortname=":best:" /></blockquote>
