Hausermann's Orchid Greenhouses

And look a BLACK orchid..though it looks reddish here: Akutenshi7 took me over there to check out the orchids (they smell incredibly wonderful too), and she brought her little Nanyalin Fairy to pose with some of the orchids. The fairy is so cute--I love the Oscar eyes in her, too! I need to get my brother up here to see this place, though I will need to bring a book and maybe a large styrofoam cooler to get his plants home in. And yes, I bought a small orchid with interesting leaves, since they don't bloom for me (I am a bad orchid mom).

The Jungle at BJ's

Image
I was waiting to pick up K at BJ's and wandering around with a cart. And of course having a cart meant that I had put in a huge package of plastic cups, a mammoth package of paper plates, and a hose reel--BJ's does nothing in a small way. But then here was a display of orchids (!) and ferns. The jungle would look more convincing if you couldn't see a small portion of the GIANT COFFEE package behind it. I could actually go through a BJ's sized coffee package by myself, but it takes a couple of weeks. Perhaps because I had stuff in my cart, no one told me not to take a photo.
