I found that story very funny, but had a similar shock of my own not too long ago. My b/f picked me up a Phal (not knowing much about orchids then, but I have since tried to educate him) on his way home from a music festival to give me as a gift. It was very sweet of him because he just knew I loved orchids and nothing else (that was over a year ago and know he knows all about them and my preferences...LOL). Anyway, I was reading the tag that came with it about how to care for it. I usually get a chuckle out of them as they are generally incorrect or very vague. Anyway, this one said:
"After blooming is finished, throw plant away. Don't worry, we'll grow more!"
I couldn't believe it! I wonder how many people follow those instructions. I wish i had kept the tag to scan in...it was new to me.
