Accident? I think not.

They had a bench with flowering cats to show what the blooms were like. There was a gorgeous white one called C Hawaiian Wedding Song Virgin AM/AOS and I decided I wanted one. I went and got one and 3 or 4 others. The one I picked had advanced buds on it just about ready to bloom.

Yesterday the buds started to open and I was really surprised to see traces of purple/lilac appearing. When I checked the label it became obvious I had picked up the wrong cat! The label says Blc Spring Dawn ' Top Row' x C Hawaiian Wedding Song 'Virgin' AM/AOS!

Well she is beautiful, even if she isn't what I planned on getting! Gives me an excuse to go back again soon!

Marion, an orchid nursery only an hours drive away from you? How do you manage such self control and not go every weekend?

I think your accidental purchase is beautiful too BTW

That is a beautiful Catt! People around here seem to buy a lot of orchids by mistake.

Damian would you believe they aren't open weekends or public holidays.......lol

I used to be a very nervous driver and wouldn't drive outside of Rockingham. Lately I've gotten more confident and I'm so pleased I got there on my own. I will be going back next week. Marion

I may take another pic of her tomorrow because the colours have deepened since I posted this.

Marion, that's a bummer but at the same time probably a good thing if you know what I mean

Congrats on being able to take such a positive step in your driving.. I was in a car accident when I was 15.. not seriously physically injured, but we didn't have a car for a few years after that... and I don't drive at all, I only currently have a Learner's license
