Spring blooms
 
6 Attachment(s)
Hey all!

We have little blooms!

First is Asctm miniatum, which I got in February with no spikes at all, and look! Now I have 4! :cheer:

Next is my Epidendrum Candy Dandy, which I bought last year with no clue how to care for it. He has given me 2 little blooms! :cheer:

And lastly, I'm going to squeeze in a couple of tulip pictures so people can see them before my puppy knocks them all down (he's such a clutz! :faint: )

Enjoy!! :cheer: :cheer:

Bright and beautiful colors going on there! Lovely tulips aswell :D

Nice ones, Niki. The miniatum is one of my favorites but unfortunately mine has now gone to orchid heaven.

Thanks! I don't have many orchids blooming right now, since most just finished, but I'm so happy to see these that I don't care!

Does your dog help dig too? ;)

It was sold as one plant for $15CAN but when I got it home, I found that it was 2 (and 1 has a keiki). Not bad for $15, eh? :D

Wow Niki nice!! Good growing! I see puppy butt in that one photo!! :D :D

Nice, Niki!! I LOVE that little Epi hybrid! And it looks about the right size for me. Pray tell how tall she is?

Epidendrum Candy Dandy is about....8 inches tall now. He's a really young plant though, I'm not entirely sure how tall they are supposed to get, but I've had him a year, and he's stayed the same size, roughly (growing roots like mad though)

LOL, yes to the digging, she digs very deep and wide, they're manholes!
Last year she over pruned many of the new bushes we got. I think this year she was cured, as she decided to bite onto a rose bush. Oooh she wasn't happy! Live and learn puppy cakes :evil: :lol:

Hopefully you're dog is like mine with the orchids, Niki. She loves them and has much respect for them, when the old blooms fall to the floor she will pick them up and carry them to me. Charm has made that her job, and she is quite proud of herself.
To me, She is priceless :)
