    Worth doing!

    I received an orchid as a gift three years ago. They’re like bonsai trees for people with no attention span. It required some regular upkeep, but the results were incredible. I normally don’t give a damn about flowers, but the challenge of raising something so fragile was worth the effort.

    so, despite my last orchid dying (after it was doing so well for so long! baaad me for overwatering!)... i would really like to try this again. orchids are possibly one of the most beautiful blooms :)

    It’s fussy, but so very pretty. The blooms last quite a while. Remember not to overwater. Also, even when the blooms fall off, don’t despair. If the leaves continue to grow strong, chances are it’ll bloom again in a couple months (that’s what happened with my orchid).
