You haven't heard much from me lately because I've been laying low, blinds closed and curtains pulled. The orchid police have been going up and down the street but I haven't seen them in an hour or so so perhaps they're gone. The word must be out that I spent most of the day Saturday at an orchid auction at the USF Botanical Gardens and no less than 21 new orchids followed me home. I was a volunteer so I had to stay until the bloody end and it went from 10 AM until 3 PM. Most of mine were in bloom and I will try to give you a link for the ones that were not.
