If you are a long-time reader of this blog, you have been following the story of the orchid that I bought a couple years ago. After its original blossoms had dropped, it did not rebloom for over a year. Then, not long after I had it repotted by a professional at a nursery, a flower stalk emerged, and it finally rebloomed last autumn. The flowers lasted into January, After just a couple of months, another flower stalk sprouted this year. I have been watching the buds develop and grow larger. This week one of them opened...
And by the way, my late-blooming poinsettia, which I bought three Christmases ago, is still full of red leaves. I almost wish that it would finish blooming so that I can cut it back and prepare it for next season. (I noticed that one of the red leaves dropped a few days ago, and that some of the green leaves are starting to yellow, so perhaps it is nearing the end of this year's late bloom.)
