    Quite a flower spray it gave you.
    “If nature were not beautiful it would not be worth knowing, and life would not be worth living. I am not speaking, of course, of the beauty which strikes the senses, of the beauty of qualities and appearances. I am far from despising this, but it has nothing to do with science. What I mean is that more intimate beauty which comes from the harmonious order of its parts, and which a pure intelligence can grasp.” - Henri Poincare

    Still looks very fresh. Dendrobiums are so long lasting. Just love them.
    Orchids are very eloquent.They tell their master by their appearance , how they are treated.

    A real beauty. I've got a Den Blue Twinkle 'Louise' that has been blooming for about 2 months now and has no intention of stopping anytime soon!
    Best,
