Orchids Orchids Everywhere!

Okay! I said I would post about my new orchid, and I am!
The newest orchid in my collection is a new hybrid. It's white with dark purple splotches, and I love it!
Here are some pictures of it:
I've got 3 other orchids, but only one other that's currently blooming. I took a few pictures, but they all came out blurry, so please enjoy this banner I painted of it (instead of a photo):
On a unrelated note, I'm stoked to read Philip K. Dick's Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? which I'm told was the basis for the movie Blade Runner. I saw the movie, but all I can remember from it is Daryl Hannah, and that ridiculous outfit she wore:

  1. The orchids are gorgeous. They look like they've been splatter with paint. The second pic is my fav, the middle of it looks like a skull. Too cool.

  2. Wifey has about a gaaazillion orchids around the house. They come. They go (into the compost bin). They liven up the house. What's amazing is the life span of an orchid bloom.

  3. I might have to read that electric sheep book, actually! I think her outfit is great, haha, and her hair and make-up too!
