My epidendrum collection

 It all started 2 years ago in our local farmers market.  Regular orchid vendor in the farmers market was ready to pack up for the day.  I was the last customer for the day.  I told her I wanted an orchid which wasn't a Phalaenopsis.

I hope you all had a wonderful Father's day.  We did have a quite and enjoyable father's day at home.  Work and other activities have been keeping me so busy that I am unable to post anything.  I will be back next week.

Wishing you all a good rest of the week.   I will be back next week. Until then .........

Spring has Sprung - Part III

I hope you are all having a good week.  I have been having a pretty hectic week myself.  I am hoping it will ease in next couple of days.

Here is what is blooming in my garden this week.

My Dahlias have started to come back this year and this is the season's first bloom.

Etsy Store find - The Second Life

Last night I was browsing through the Facebook group page of Second to None.  I have had some good luck with this group which gently used items.  I will post details a little later.

In one such browsing session  I landed on a photograph  for a block print wrapping paper.   It belonged to a store called "The Second Life".
