Mine will gnaw them down to stubs if she can get at them. Thus the orchid closed was born.

You might be an orchid nut if you're gleefully planning the expansion that requires the (natural - NOT untimely!) death of a (seriously beloved) family pet. Its a sickness!

When your amazing husband offers to take you to orchid shops "Because it's fun to see you so excited."


When you start focusing your career just so you can afford a greenhouse when you retire.
When you find mold growing in the house.

These are for the under-lights growers:
When lightbulbs are a line item in your budget.
When you've considered buying a generator just to power your lights during an outage.
When your house is 75 degrees all year without running the furnace - no matter how cold it gets outside.
You worry about your house burning down on a regular basis.
When you don't need any other lighting in your house during the day, even in the basement.
When your electric bill is so high the police come knocking.
When you have to bring used CF lighbulbs for recycling at several different places because you've reached your limit everywhere.

When you are at your mother-in-law's for the Saturday of Mother's day weekend and your husband says, "Do you want to go to IKEA on the way home and buy that Detolf cabinet to put in the dining room window for your plants? It can be your Mother's Day gift".........



FYI IKEA | Dining storage | Display cabinets | DETOLF | Glass-door cabinet

If you can't see out of your windows, because the vandas are hanging in front of them.

oh heres one!

i think its dumb whenever im in the shampoo/soap/lotion areas of stores and i see things with the smell "exotic orchid"/"vanilla" or whatnot and they have the WRONG orchid picture printed on the containers. im thinking like "that's a dendrobium, NOT vanilla" or "phalaenopsis DONT smell like this" which they dont lol.

who agrees with me?
