I had the something similar and used to get called Hedgehog when I was young too. Though it came about after the Maternity Nurses decided to call it me. Was born with a full head of spiky hair.

Hedgehogs are wonderful little creatures though! Nice to know where you got your online ID from and I promise not to call you as Mrs Tiggy Winkle.

PS wishing you all Good luck for the kids exams! (forgot to say that last time round)



What about Rosy Hedgehogs?

So when did the Hedgehog become a Triffid?

Hedgehog stuck with me because I also grow cacti and collected (note the past tense ) hedgehogs made of anything - especially liked the crystal one a boyfriend gave me for my 21st. I still have it (the hedgehog, not the boyfriend)

O, and btw we have hijacked your thread!!

I became Triffid when I joined this site, but it comes from my husband referring to me as "The Queen of the Triffids" and "Triffid Queen"... My plants as you can probably work out are referred to as the Triffids. Hubby did suggest me using Queen Triffid when I was registering, but I felt that was just a bit presumptuous of me After all I'm Orchids are still new for me.

That last sentence really made me chuckle!
My mum on occasion still refers to me as "her little Hedgehog". She also used to collect little hedgehog figurines and likes her Cacti

One place I have gotten GREAT Phals from is Pine Ridge Orchids Pine Ridge Orchids - Home Page
Terry grows for breeder HP among others. His plants are Monsters,for $15. Add shipping - around $6 for me, and you have a good deal. His Paphs are amazing too. I have a Ho Chi Minh from him that came with 9 growths and is now blooming with 3 spikes 2 flowers each. It's a sight!
