My first orchid blooms! (and other successes)

[ceropegia]

They aren't spectactular, but this is the first orchid I've had bloom for me. I bought this plant at Lowe's on sale a bit before last summer, and it finally bloomed! It's a mini phal, so the blooms are tiny (about 1 1/2 - 2"). I love the color! When I bought it it didn't have any flowers on it so I had no idea what the colors would be. Yay!

Also, all 4 of the somewhat bedraggled orchids I got at the conservatory sale have new roots and new shoots and pseudobulbs forming! Even the really dried out zygopetalum has new growth! Yay again!
