You don't have to go far to find beautiful flowers. Nicely done, Isv.
I really don't have to! ~Half an hour ago I notice my wife was taking care of her orchids on the lanai and asked her to take some photos. She wasn't happy in the beginning but gave up when I told her I'm going to post them on CR :LOL:! She became really good in taking care of here orchids and making them flowering again and again. Very proud with herself :)! I'm not a fan of orchids but there is almost nothing else on the lanai... Unfortunately right now there is nothing blooming from hers more rare species.

Beautiful ones!

Just by coincidence, on the 1st of March my phalaenopsis decided to bloom again after about 3 (three) years of ignoring my attempts to make them do so.
Maybe your wife could give me some advice on that ;)
I finally found the time to process the pics today.

The included orchid is not from my wife's collection. It's planted by human but I don't believe any one took care of it afterwards: these are difficult and if they go on proper habitat they bloom and thrive by themself, if not - you have no chance (at least according to my knowledge...)
