Pink blooms...


Happy Pink Saturday, all! It's been a few weeks but it's nice to be back amongst my pink-loving friends. Today I thought I'd share a photo of this fabulous pink orchid a friend of mine gave me. I know next to nothing about orchids, but I followed the directions in caring for this one and I am amazed at how many months - yes months! - these blooms have lasted. Orchids are known for being quite particular, so I figured I'd be lucky to keep it alive for a few weeks. But this one has just thrived. Isn't it lovely?
As always, thanks to Beverly at How Sweet the Sound for hosting this weekly tribute to pink. Stop by her place for a complete list of this week's participants (and be sure to leave her a get-well message while you're at it).
Wishing all of you a fabulously pink weekend!

    What a gorgeous Orchid! I was tempted to buy one the other day, but am afraid I would kill it by accident!!~

    Great job on the orchid! I've thought about getting one before and like you, I've heard they are difficult to care for...Happy Pink Saturday!

    That is a beautiful pink orchid. I had an orchid last year and it was so beautiful but I have terrible luck with plants and it didn't make it. I love all of your beautiful things.
