In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

Thank you. Now I just need to figure out what kind of orchids I have😂

That is where I keep mine!

We purchased our first home in 1989 and I began my gardening journey. There was a mature forsythia next to the house. It was one of the most beautiful things I had ever seen that following spring. First thing to show!

Daily orchid (day 37). I’m posting a native U.K. orchid picture, taken by me over the last couple of years, every day, until New Years Eve. The last orchid of my countdown, and the last to flower, Autumn Lady’s-tresses (Spiranthes spiralis) Hampshire Aug 2024 #orchid #dailyorchid

Please elaborate! I have a whole ward of orchids I just moved to a literal cooler climate!

I am not familiar with this. Thank you for posting!
