A green Christmas

The plant grows weaker and weaker, lower layer of leaves turned to yellow then fell off gradually.  It lost the bright appearance and seems not adapted to indoor environment.  Now I am in a dilemma as whether to keep it or not.

Only open one flower for me this year,  the replanted flame violet protests about my negligent care.


My green path.

They stand patiently on top of a shoe cabinet, waving me goodbye and greeting me home.
 They rarely flower but will do at the right timing.  Brilliant and strongly fragrant flowers only bloom at night then wilt before dawn, last 2 or 3 nights until all flower buds are gone.  Counted about three times blooming for me in circa 15 years.

Lovely pink african violet

The flower buds struggled out of the thick forest of leaves to show their beauty!

Slipper orchid

They give me four blooms this Autumn.  Their origin is from Vietnam but name, no idea.

No orchid

I was wrong. The mottled leaves plant is not any orchid but a kind of perennial plants with pseudobulbs and will flower if I am taking good care of them. Not too disappointed.

Noid orchid

I saw a few pots of this Plant in a store this morning, no name labels on, blooms unseen but it has pseudobulbs and leaves with spotted marks that it looked alike kind of dendrobium or oncidium.  I just bought one.  Try my luck, hope the blooms coming soon! D or O or ? Full of my expectation!
