MORE ORCHIDS, OF COURSE – FOTD – 2-10-2020
Today I fed my orchid 10-10-10 fertilizer and dug out some ice cubes. This is supposed to keep them growing. Apparently, they sort of burn out when they bloom. So let’s hear it for fertilizer and ice cubes. It’s so cold in this house, it’s going to take a long time before those cubes melt!
I’m getting reacquainted with my macro lens. Also, I think we are getting more daylight. Our meteorologist said we are adding 2-1/2 minutes each day. It feels like more.

I’m doing my best. I realized if I didn’t at least give them fertilizer while they are making flowers, they will definitely die.

It really does look like a heart. It’s even shaped like a human heart.

They are really lovely. I have done all the things my orchid guide warned me to do. I hope they do better now that I’m paying attention.

Some “green thumb” you have right there, Marilyn.

Thank you, though I really need to do some repotting and fertilizing and stuff. I’ve been very neglectful recently and some of the plants are in soil so old, it probably has no “value” anymore. But I’m going to be better. I promise!
