Sadly I can't have many plants inside since my cats tend to eat anything with leaves. Fortunately they have found the fake plants I have an abundance of are quite unattractive. But those live ones? Well, they're another story all together! I have two indoor plants who are locked away from the cats in my master bath. One of them seems to be complaining about the small amounts of sun it gets in there though. <em>Hi Cinj! I can't say I have ever had that problem as I am VERY allergic to cats and have never been able to have one indoors. :( I wish I could though as I love 'em but they give me an asthma attack. Not good! -Cynthia</em> Simply gorgeous. Sadly I can’t have many plants inside since my cats tend to eat anything with leaves.

The second one reminds me of the Lady Slipper which grows in our woods, and is the provincial flower of PEI. <em>Thank you Chey! I really need to scope out some more info on the wild orchids as these comments have gotten me curious! Have a great weekend. :) -Cynthia</em> Your orchid blooms are beautiful!

I love your Orchids--beautiful and you obviously know your plant. Can we see a whole picture of a plant that is several years old. All I've ever seen are the ones sold in stores. I have no clue what an Orchid does year after year or how big it gets. What kind of soil do you use? They come in those itty bitty pots with all that growth on top---The roots look curled around inside the pot already. How long do you keep it in the store pot and what size pot does it eventually graduate to. I have never seen a mature Orchid. How do you make worm tea? I make compost tea but have never made worm tea? Thanks--I have a great place to grow an orchid in my new house. I am anxious to get started. <em>Wow Anna, you weren't kidding when you said you have some questions for me! :) Maybe I will do another post on my orchids so I can answer some of your questions there as the answers are a little too long for a comment box. Like I told Karen in her above comment I will do a post on my worms and will explain there what I mean by worm tea. Thank you for the questions as it keeps my brain churning! ;) -Cynthia</em> Got some questions for ya. I love your Orchids–beautiful and you obviously know your plant.
